CHRIS DODD’S COUNTRYWIDE SHUFFLE ISN’T PLAYING WELL IN CONNECTICUT:

Sen. Dodd has finally released paperwork for his controversial mortgages, but the fact that he waited so long to do so has hurt him politically. . . . Sen. Dodd created his own maelstrom. He waited too long to release the documents. What was he thinking?

I don’t think he actually “released” the documents, though. He just let a few reporters glance at them without making copies — the “idiot’s treatment.” He should actually release the documents to public scrutiny.
