We here at Fishwrap appreciate White House hopeful Sen. Chris Dodd's attempt to be hip on his campaign Web site.

Being a fan of rhyme and alliteration, I even like the idea of the Dodd Pod, a feature the Connecticut Democrat includes on the site to allow supporters to suggest songs he should put in his iPod playlist.

But your humble Fishwrapper couldn't help but notice that the Dodd Pod has been a little, ahem, neglected
lately, to put it nicely.

The last entry was posted almost a month ago, and doesn't exactly suggest encouragement for his longshot presidential bid.

Journey's "Don't Stop Believing," was suggested by Dodd fan Jessica on Jan. 31.

"Because you have the best message, and the best hair!" Jessica told the long-term senator.

If the 2008 contenders were ranked on hair, this Fishwrapper would have to go with former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney. The Republican hasn't found anything catchy to rhyme with his name yet, but he does have Mitt TV. It's a start.
