It appears Chris Dodd (D-Connecticut) was watching the Bush TV event, and thought, "how hard could it be?"
Thursday, Dodd announced he will run for President on Imus in the Morning. Not quite the Daily Show but I guess the Dodd candidacy caters to a different crowd. There had been months and months and months and months of speculation that Dodd would enter the race, and while many yawned at the notion, the Connecticut Senator still decided to join the race.
As CNN points out, Dodd has been in the Senate for 26 years and started his career after the Watergate scandal.
This makes it 4 official Democratic candidates (Dodd, John Edwards, Dennis Kucinich, Tom Vilsack) and two pseudo-withdrawls (Mark Warner, Russ Feingold).
