[Siebel is celebrating its triumph over the SEC.] This was a win not only for Siebel but for all public companies trying to do the right thing, ... We contested the SEC's claims in order to exonerate the company and its executives and to bring clarity to an important issue that was mishandled by the regulators. |
He is a very nice guy, easy to talk to. For me, I don't know anything about politics and we usually talk about family. |
Howard's been raising money, energizing the troops, organizing the party. Is he passionate? Yes. But I'd rather have someone who is blunt and passionate. |
I had every confidence we could get a Feb. 8 primary approved. When it comes to Feb. 1, I don't have the same level of confidence at all, |
