Weird thing is,prison might do it for him in a good way. Let him live not just with regular folks, but the one's he screwed over with the laws he passed. I don't know if you remember Dan Rostenkowski. He was Chair of House Ways and Means under Tip O'Neill, and corrupt as hell. Finally got him on some penny ante BS involving abusing Franking privlieges for campaign fliers or the like. Feebs even offered him an out, sort of like Murkowski from Alaska, said they'd call it a day if he'd plead guilty and resign. He was arrogant enough to say no and fought (even though he was guilty as hell). Wound up with a couple of years in club fed. I heard him on Terry Gross on NPR after he got out. Talk about a changed guy (bear in mind he wasn't on parole, but free and clear). He could not stop going on about " Congressional privelidge", the injustice of the war on drugs "I looked at a kid who'd done 5 years and had five more to go and realized I'd helped put him there when I was a drunk and felt sick" and so on. Too little too late, but it did seem too help the old bastard come to Jesus. Maybe Dodd will be the same way. I'd sure like to see.
