Sen. Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.) left no uncertainty about his political future despite announcing last week that doctors diagnosed him with prostate cancer - he will fight on.
Dodd is up for re-election in 2010, and faces a tough battle because of his relationship with Countrywide Mortgage and his role in the AIG bonus backlash. Despite all this, he says he won't back down.
"I'll be a little leaner, and a little meaner, but I'm running," Dodd says.
