Senator Chris Dodd has a couple of new ads — featuring the rather mousy catchphrase: “Why Not Dodd?” — that tout him as THE candidate who can bring Republicans and Democrats together.

View from the Shop
A couple of barbers hanging out in their empty shop watch a Hillary TV ad — “Is that a new plan?” says one. “The only way you’re going to get healthcare passed,” says the other “is to bring Democrats and Republicans together.”

Duet
After a long morning of not cutting hair, the barbers break for coffee and watch a feisty John Edwards on the luncheonette’s TV. “There’s a lot of talk about fighting out there . . . We need a President who’s about results.”
