Are you talking about him cheerleading the Bush economy? Yeah, those could come back to haunt him, but Kudlow would decimate Chris Dodd in a debate, absolutely decimate him.

Then there is his “wild days” involving alcoholism and cocaine usage back in the day. I don’t this would be as big a negative as his comments vis a vis the Bush economy.

Connecticut is never going to elect a full conservative in my lifetime, but I would love to see Dodd go bye bye,… and at least Kudlow would be entertaining… he also (Kudlow) thinks (rightly) that Obama is stark raving off the farm mad with this budget. Kudlow was sounding more like Jim Cramer Thursday morning than Cramer normally sounds and it was all over this new budget.

I lived in CT for three years. Any thoughts of a Republican resurgence, IMNSHO, are illusory at best. The state has become hard-core socialist, and with each passing day the people like me move to greener pastures (quite literally–it’s friggin’ cold there and the economy has royally sucked wind for almost 20 years).

Maybe if Olympia Snowe moved there, Republicans would have a chance, but that really doesn’t help the cause, does it?

The whole state is corrupt, and it’s too bad there’s never been any real investigations (aside from the one that got one RINO governor removed from office and a former RINO mayor sent to jail for… well, let’s just say it was “icky”).

Dodd is beyond corrupt, as are the rest of them. Even life-long Democrat friends of mine admit it. Everyone in the state has dirty hands. Every time Dodd runs for President, I find myself hoping he’ll win the nod, as cursory investigations would expose a lot.

But it means that Kudlow will largely be a sacrificial lamb.

Never mind the past. Larry you are the brightest person in American media today!

If we want to take back this great country of ours, we have to act.

You have name recognition, it would be shame if you did not step and be counted!

It might sound far-fetched, but just remember: at a similar point in 1993, nobody saw the revolution of 1994 coming, save Newt Gingrich and a few other visionaries.

The lesson for our side in 2010 is clearly to run candidates in every state, and every district….just ask Tom Foley. With respect to Chris Dodd, nobody likes a crook, and his father before him was also ethically challenged. Senator Thomas Dodd was only the ninth man in Senate history to be censured; in his case, it was for misappropriating campaign funds (i.e., stealing). I guess an apple doesn’t fall very far from the tree.

Given the current landscape, a vigorous campaign against Dodd could be a two-fer: nailing someone who wants to bail out irresponsible folks who face foreclosure…..given that he got help in buying his homes from Countrywide, just a bit hypocritical. At the same time, it might finally help shine the light on the assistance Obama got in buying his home, from a lobbyist and convicted felon.

I agree that Larry Kudlow has some baggage, but he’s a man who’s come clean, and most folks like redemption stories. He obviously knows how to use the media, and expresses the outrage many of us feel over the way team-Obama is trying to wreck this country’s economy.

and is now a born again Christian? If our party does not allow for personal betterment, then we are a bunch of hypocrites. Kudlow has no baggage, he would be a great Senator.

As he knows economics, just shows you how bad the Obama economy is. Though on a serious note I hope he runs as it be nice to have an actual conservative Senator out of New England in the next senate, assuming Judd Gregg retires as he has hinted at.

that guy is the very definition of optimist. Guess that’s not such a bad thing but it can be overdone.
