Profile
Rating |
Update:
Senator Chris Dodd withdrew from the 2008 Presidential race, having
been unsuccessful at gene
rating national support for his candidacy.
The son of a US Senator, Chris Dodd served in the United States Army for 6 years,
represented Connecticut in the House for another 6 years, and has been
serving for the past 26 years in the Senate, where he chairs the Banking
Committee.
A Roman Catholic married to a Mormon, Senator Chris Dodd's lack of foreign policy
experience, despite his long tenure in the Congress, is an issue for the
conservative vote, as is his advocacy
of un-
evangelical, un-
Christian
social
values issues; he is pro-
abortion,
pro-embryonic stem cell research and pro-
homosexual
marriage. He is also an unabashed champion of the financial services
industry.
Our rating of his candidacy for President is a
D.
