In the good old days when I was a senator, I was my own man.

No foreign policy can be sustained in the United States of America without the informed consent of the American people. And informed means just that, successes and failure, a realistic assessment of where we are and what the president plans to do about it.

I'm not running like Colonel [Bernie] Sanders. All reputations matter.

Osama bin Laden is dead, and General Motors is alive.

Barack and I see a future... where no one, no one is forced to live in the shadows of intolerance.

I have never left another senator out to dry. Never.

My position is that I am personally opposed to abortion, but I don't think I have a right to impose my view on the rest of society. I've thought a lot about it, and my position probably doesn't please anyone. I think the government should stay out completely. I will not vote to overturn the Court's decision. I will not vote to curtail a woman's right to choose abortion. But I will also not vote to use federal funds to fund abortion.
