Jason Rosenbaum's weekly post on MyDD is up today and it's a great one.
The only candidate from either party that I would trust to shrink executive power is one who makes the Constitution central to his or her arguments, as returning to the Constitution ensures all areas of Bush's expansion are addressed.
The Constitution lies at the heart of Chris Dodd's appeal. He is most known in this campaign for his work on issues in the Senate such as restoring habeas corpus and fighting against telecom immunity. Both of these issues are rooted in the Constitutional argument, and for this reason, I believe, they have been Dodd's most successful to date.
Dodd has also specifically addressed the Constitution at a couple points in his campaign. He makes the very argument that the Constitution protects the country.
Go read Jason's whole piece on MyDD or at his regular home, The Seminal.
