Play of the Day: Dodd moves to Iowa

[oberliner]

DES MOINES, Iowa - Democratic presidential candidate Chris Dodd will have a new pitch to Iowans: Vote for a neighbor.

The Connecticut senator has rented a house in Des Moines, where he and his family will live until the caucuses in January. Dodd and his wife, Jackie Clegg Dodd, have two daughters, 6-year-old Grace and 2-year-old Christina.

"They've rented a house in Des Moines and the girls will be coming out as well," campaign spokeswoman Taylor West said Friday. "It's one more piece of strengthening our operation in Iowa. We are committed to the state."
