Biden, Clinton, Obama said they would support Dodd's filibuster...

Guess what? They are nowhere on the Senate floor to be seen, let alone heard from.

Unless they show up and help with this filibuster, then this undecided voter has just decided to write all three of those Senators off my list. Not one of them will get my vote.

This is a test of leadership. So far, those three Senators are failing that test today.

1. Well, Dodd sure as hell found

time to be there. It's pretty easy to give lip service to anything.

9. I knew all along Biden was a liar

He's a Republican in Dem's clothing. As for HRC, no surprise there. And Obama? Once again, he's the Invisible Senator. I guess that's his idea of "change": Doing nothing.

John Edwards 2008!

6. Dodd is on fire right now, on the floor of the Senate...

he is winning my vote. Right now, for me, it's him or Edwards.

8. Ditto

Still haven't made up my mind yet. Very telling and disappointing today to see Dodd standing alone.

5. Dodd seemingly

is the only candidate
that realizes the critical
importance of this.
Talk is cheap,(to those
candidates who say they
support it but are not
there), Talk is cheap,
it takes action to make
change.

7. "It takes action to make change."

Never heard that with the "talk is cheap" euphemism. It's a good one. It can be taken two ways!!
