Customers can't always tell you what they want, but they can always tell you what's wrong.

I have very eclectic tastes.

We need more transparency and accountability in government so that people know how their money is being spent. That means putting budgets online, putting legislation online.

What I think we need to do to engage the American people in a conversation about entitlement reform is to have a bipartisan group of people who come together and put every solution on the table, every alternative on the table. And then we ought to engage in a long conversation with the American people so they understand the choices.

I think it would help tremendously to have a senator that knows where jobs come from, that knows how to create them, that knows how to bring them back and, importantly, knows what it means to manage billions of dollars' worth of expenses and cut billions of dollars' worth of expenses.

Any work that's worth doing has its challenges as well as its opportunities. That's true if you're running a business, it's true if you're trying to help on a campaign.

We know the only way to reimagine our government is to reimagine who is leading it.
