Was Sent to Lobbyists

By David D. Kirkpatrick
Senator Christopher J. Dodd’s campaign has mastered populism, but
maybe not tact.

This week the campaign sent out a fund-raising e-mail entitled “Those
poor lobbyists!”

To tout Mr. Dodd’s common-man credentials, it quoted anonymous
lobbyists complaining that they could not get meetings with him: “ ‘He
certainly isn’t doing things to cater to the K Street crowd,’ Isn’t
that a shame?” A link sent viewers to a video set against the sound of
weeping — presumably the tears of a lobbyist.

The Dodd campaign, however, neglected to remove Washington lobbyists
from its e-mail fund-raising lists. One forwarded it to The Times with
the question, “Can you believe this idiot is sending this to
lobbyists?”
