There was a point when I almost gave up. I couldn't feed myself. I couldn't feed my pets.

How rude would I be, walking around and saying: 'Hello. I'm Eleanor Mondale. My father was vice president of the United States. Treat me differently.

When you're nearing 35, going, 'Hey Dad, I can't make these payments,' just isn't cool.

Don't forget to vote for Bill Clinton and Al Gore. Stay home if you're voting for Dole.

I started out pursuing an acting career out of college when I lived in Los Angeles. When I got an entry into broadcasting, I preferred it. I liked being me, rather than dressing up to be someone else. Now I'm 30 and doing a career of my own and have been in this career for eight years.

I have to prove myself five times over.

I didn't like not having work and not having people return my calls.
