May not be a crook, at least in the technical sense, but circumstantial evidence is beginning to pile up. He must thank the Lord everyday that the Senate's “Ethics” committee consequences are reserved for Republicans.

But you won't hear Obama criticizing Dodd, Kent Conrad, or Barney Frank. Silly boy – did you believe all of that pre election rhetoric about supporting the middle class?
Comment: Ah Mr. Dodd; one of a hundred reasons the 17th should be repealed.
