I think democracy fails under a variety of conditions and one of the conditions occurs when people don't have the ability to get the kind of information they need to make up their mind. Ideologically, I don't care much for FOX News. But the truth is that, as long as there are countervailing points of view available on the spectrum, it doesn't matter.

We will ultimately be judged by how we react in times of trouble and how we care for the least among us.

We've gotten rid of (Saddam Hussein), and I suppose that's a good thing.

I learned that the American people are pretty great people. And they are just poorly served by their leadership, and Washington's very much out of touch with the struggles of ordinary Americans. My hope is that we'll have a Democratic Administration, and then we'll hold their feet to the fire so they start performing for people who put them there.

I still want to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks.

The idea that the United States is going to win the war in Iraq is just plain wrong.
