Well, Bill, I don't think you're going to find many shy people that are in the political business.

Well, Bill, I don't think you're going to find many shy people that are in the political business.

My goal was to do the best job I could in governing the state of Wisconsin, in some cases making very tough decisions to have to bring our spending in line with the resources we had at the state level.

That's why I made decisions; they were tough decisions but we shouldn't feel bad at all - don't look back with any regrets, that's how I made decisions as governor.

Politicians are no different than the rest of the public.

I've said we need to look at things from the perspective of working people and taxpayers, not from the perspective of government and government officials.

I'm not sure a candidate ever feels his message is getting out.
