Chris Dodd is no Lee Iacocca

Uber-auto expert Chris Dodd (D-Countrywide) on why Chrysler may not survive 2009.

You could make a car that could run on air or could fly and people wouldn't buy it," said Senate Banking Chairman Christopher Dodd, D-Conn. "I'm hoping that we may see some of that investor consumer confidence come back."

Jeez, with the likes of you running the nation's financial system, mind explaining why the "investor consumer" ought to have any confidence. Senator, weren't you the guy who said Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were "fundamentally strong",[46] said they were in "sound situation" and "in good shape" and to "suggest they are in major trouble is not accurate"

Chrysler may be a "lost cause", but Senator Dodd's credibility most certaintly is.  

Lee Iacocca saved Chrysler with the slogan "If you can find a better car, buy it.". His latest book is Where Have All the Leaders Gone?

They are not running the Senate or House Banking Committees, that's for sure. In 2010 Connecticut voters will have the opportunity to find a better Senator, and I expect they will buy it.
