I doubt he'll actually do it. 

Won't there be a conflict of interest with his investment business.

I wonder what the voters will think about his father being in prison for "tax crimes".   It may not be relevent but it will still be an issue that could hurt him

Dodd is already extremely unpopular and losing in the polls to whoever runs against him.

I'm not a fan of Dodd either but Schiff has a lot of baggage and not much to gain by running for public office
