30-year Senate veteran [[Chris Dodd]] was ranked the most vulnerable Senator in the 2010 election cycle by National Journal. He has announced he will not seek a sixth term.

Dodd’s approval ratings had plummeted after his failed presidential campaign in 2008, his controversial mortgage deal from Countrywide, and revelations about the $165 million bonuses for AIG executives that he attached in an amendment to the economic stimulus package, despite receiving federal bailout money. Former Congressman [[Rob Simmons]] is seeking the Republican nomination and was leading Dodd in public opinion polls. <ref>http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x1296.xml?ReleaseID=1353</ref> <ref>http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/elections2/election_2010/election_2010_senate_elections/connecticut/toplines/toplines_connecticut_senate_race_september_10_2009/</ref> <ref>http://www.dailykos.com/statepoll/2009/9/10/CT/369/</ref> <ref>http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x1296.xml?ReleaseID=1395</ref> <ref>http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/elections2/election_2010/election_2010_senate_elections/connecticut/election_2010_connecticut_senate_race</ref>World Wrestling Entertainment CEO [[Linda McMahon]] is running for the Republican nomination, and has spent over $50 million of her own money on the race.
