When I talk to people outside the beltway, I don't think people are that divided.

The permanent institutional expertise class is now no longer the legislators, it's the lobbyists who don't have term limits and are there forever.

I think you should live your moral values, but the last thing, the very last thing, the government should do is have laws that would punish women who make reproductive choices.

If somebody comes before me and I think that they will do a good job in fulfilling the mission - even if I might not have nominated them - if I think they're gonna do a good job, I vote for 'em.

I think people are very focused on the economic issues. They want an economy that works for everybody.

The job of a legislator is much more fixing existing law, revising it, improving it, than it is passing something that doesn't exist.

One of the reasons people love Joe Biden is he just kind of says what he thinks. He's a guy whose heart is on his sleeve, and that's one of the things people love about him.
