Patrick Kennedy Endorses Dodd
Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-RI) has given Sen. Chris Dodd (D-CT) his endorsement in Dodd's run for the Democrat presidential nomination.
He cited Dodd's Senate record and service in the Peace Corps, adding that they
...are both graduates of Providence College.
"He is a fellow Friar," Kennedy told The Providence Journal. "Friars stick together."
Kennedy is best known for being Ted Kennedy's son, and for getting special treatment after crashing his car while being inebriated last year.
Now there's an endorsement worth having!
In other endorsement news, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) has announced that he is open to endorsing any candidate in the presidential run.
"I'm going to do what most independents and a lot of Democrats and Republicans in America do, which is to take a look at all the candidates and then in the end, regardless of party, decide who I think will be best for the future of our country," Lieberman said Sunday.
Dodd "made up" with Lieberman last fall after Lieberman won his Connecticut senate race against Ned Lamont, whom Dodd had publicly supported when Lamont won the Connecticut Democrat primary.
Looks like Dodd's candidacy is off to a roaring start!
