Why not? He's been there since 1981. He deserves to spend his retirement fishing in the Long Island Sound with his grandkids.

He's still fairly young, though, by Senate standards.  He's only 65 years old, with 28 years in the Senate; he Chairs the Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee, and is next in line to Chair the HELP Committee when Ted Kennedy ends his time in the Senate.  I don't see Dodd leaving until 2023, at least.

The average age in the Senate is 62.  Dodd is 10th in seniority, but 46th in age.  He is younger than every Senator ahead of him, and many Senators who are well behind him.  All signs point to Dodd being in the Senate for a long time.
