No Republican questions or disputes civil rights. I have never wavered in my support for civil rights or the civil rights act.

The GOP of old has grown old and moss covered.

Our legislative victory - an end to earmarks.

Unless you really stand for something, people aren't motivated to go out and vote for you.

I think if you have a two-story office and you hire someone who's handicapped, it might be reasonable to let him have an office on the first floor rather than the government saying you have to have a $100,000 elevator.

I think there's evil on both sides [of Syria], and I think that's one reason I don't want to be involved in civil war. I see things in personal terms. I just can't see sending one of my sons - or your son or daughter - to fight in a civil war, where on one side we have a dictator, who in all likelihood gassed his people.

You need to have people within your own party that have the wherewithal to stand up to you.
