When the party holds the White House, all the political decisions are made in the White House. And being a party chair, you're just an artifact.

Let's not pretend that all of a sudden, this is some new system.

There are people who know Hillary Clinton who tell wonderful stories about her, how likable she is, how funny she is; 99 percent of American people don't - have never seen that side of her.

If Mitt Romney had got the percentage Ronald Reagan did of Hispanics, he would have defeated Barack Obama.

The Democrats are now an upscale party.

Hillary Clinton should get a bounce out of her convention, I mean a bounce in the polls. I think it's probably conceded that Donald Trump got about a three-point bounce out of his conventions. He's closed the gap that much.

It's interesting how identity politics and Ann Coulter-style tactics have now blossomed. But they were always there in CPAC.
