I'm just deeply disappointed that once again we may have to settle for the lesser of two evils.

As governor, I came to believe that the death penalty would be a just punishment for certain, especially heinous crimes, such as the murder of a child or the murder of a police officer. The events of September 11 convinced me that terrorists also deserve the ultimate punishment.

This is a struggle between good and evil and we're the good?

From a religious point of view, if God had thought homosexuality is a sin, he would not have created gay people.

I've resisted pronouncing a sentence before guilt is found. I will have this old-fashioned notion that even with people like Osama, who is very likely to be found guilty, we should do our best not to, in positions of executive power, not to prejudge jury trials.

I've waffled before. I'll waffle again.

You have the power to take our country back.
