And Dodd's understudy is. . .

. . . Utah's own Bobb Bennett -- he learned his lessons well from his Democratic mentor, Chris Dodd.

Because. . .

. . . "Bobb" rhymes with Dodd, and they're peas in the same pod on the Senate Finance Committee.

Utahns need to wake up. . .

. . . and connect the dots -- the same source cited in this story, the Center for Responsive Politics, lists Bob's Bennett's contributions as well, and while the actual dollar amounts may be lower than Dodd's, the sources are the same. The financial institutions that have founded and promoted Dodd's career are the same ones for Bennett.

Pay for play

Someone tell me how this is different from what has always gone on in Washington and elsewhere (Illinois, for example).
