VP Sweepstakes, Round 1: Hillary Clinton vs. Chris Dodd

[Colobo]

I'll be doing a series of VP matchups to see which is REALLY GDPs preferred candidate for Obama's VP. Tonight we have Hillary Clinton vs. Chris Dodd.

Tomorrow night we will have Joe Biden vs. Wes Clark.

[Colobo]

1. I favor Hillary on this one.

[JanusAscending]

2. How come Katz ????

Don't you like my Senator?? Cts'. ATT. Gen. already announced that if Chris is chosen, he's ready to run for his seat!! (Blumenthal) On edit.......I picked Dodd.:hi: DC

3. I'll go with Dodd but only because he's up against hill

neither one really floats my boat

[cherokeeprogressive]

12. Same here. I wish there was a NEITHER option. n/t

[PBS Poll-435]

4. Definately Hillary.

Dodd has some Countrywide issues.

Or so I heard on the cable news.

7. They can't be any worse than

the Monsanto and Walmart issues.

[PBS Poll-435]

10. It's all about CURRENT events.

Like stuff that is in the news in the past week.

5. Hillary.

[musicblind]

6. Hillary n/t

8. I have a feeling my pet rock would win this poll against Hillary.

[ruggerson]

9. What about Hagel?

11. Clinton

Because Dodd is a Senator from a state with a republican governor.

[JanusAscending]

15. Gov. won't choose replacement!

There will be a special election. As I stated above, we already have a willing and able candidate!

[bigwillq]

19. Thanks for that info.

I thought the Gov. can choose a replacement to fill out Dodd's term.

So I guess Slick Dick will have to do. :) ;) I would rather have Lamont though.

[TwilightGardener]

13. Went with Dodd--even with the mortgage problem.

[Arkana]

16. Dodd has fewer negatives and a lot less baggage

but he doesn't bring a lot to the ticket.

Truthfully, I'd rather it was neither of them.

[anonymous171]

17. Dodd.

Hands down.

[ObamaKerryDem]

18. I'm going with Hillary

I like Dodd, but Hillary did much better than him in terms of the numbers during the primaries. That has to count for something (though Hillary comes with her own baggage).. I'd be happy with either one, though! :) I'd pretty much be happy with anyone he picks, with VERY few exceptions..

[Zynx]

20. Hillary any day against Dodd.

[muryan]

21. Sorry Dodd fans

Hillary wins this round

[Beacool]

22. Oh yeah,

Dodd brings a lot of pizzaz to the ticket............

:boring:

[newmajority]

23. Two senators on the ticket = McLoon pResidency

But I'd pick Dodd over Hillary without hesitation, if I had to.

[gmudem]

24. Hillary is simply a no go

I'm a big fan of Dodd, but I don't think he would be a big help on the VP ticket. He would still be much better than Hillary.
