I can survive setbacks, I've survived a lot of setbacks in my life. I don't see them as anything other than the natural ebb and flow of life and politics.

The government has no business in the decisions that women make with their families in accordance with their faith, with medical advice. And I will stand up for that right.

I believe in community policing. And, in fact, violent crime is one-half of what it was in 1991.

We know that we have to have the right combinations of government policies and private sector energy and dynamism. Getting that balance right is what I know President Obama has tried to do, and at every turn he's been stopped.

I'm sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you're not patriotic, and we should stand up and say, "We are Americans and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration!"

I want us to raise the national minimum wage, because people who live in poverty should not - who work full-time should not still be in poverty.

I do not add a penny to the national debt.
