Goodness knows the Republican electorate is a pretty narrow slice of the population.

I believe in a fight between me & Wilder... I can come out on top

I am struck by the fact that personal faith and political agendas are intertwined more closely now than at any other time in recent history.

I'm a very competitive person, whether it's school, baseball or even playing video games.

Unified party control of the organs of government has proved no panacea.

If I was a kid and my favorite player has a good game, and if I tweet him after the game and he replies back or favorites my tweet, it's essentially like you just had a conversation with him. I couldn't imagine what that would do for me. To me it's the way it should go.

Congress needs strong parties, but it also needs the capacity to deal with budget and entitlement challenges that are likely beyond the reach of pure partisan exertion.
