Pretty interesting - this Bloomenthal guy was on TV the other day and had all the personality of a wet sock. Peter Schiff has a clear-shot opportunity to run as a more independent Republican (a lot of his support is bottom-up).
Either way, I won’t miss Dodd. I’m just not too keen on replacing one party insider with the next in the line of succession.

Dodd’s retirement paves the way for Ralph Nader to take his seat.

Hey Dodd, the ultimate banker’s flunky, good riddance, don’t let the door hit you in the ass; can Chuck Schumer be far behind, please, please, please.
