If this Enron case proverb

 If this Enron case is not the convincing argument for campaign reform, I don't know what is,

 He tries to play the role of Mr. Campaign Finance Reform at the same time that he's shaking down contributors for the biggest campaign war chest in the county. It makes for a tough case. He doesn't even have an opponent.

 it was shocking to me every step of the way with Enron to look at the culpability of others in the Enron affair because it's just not a case of a few bad apples down in Houston, Texas misbehaving, it's a case of almost everyone associated with the company, inside and outside, failing to do the right thing, and it's really frightening, and I think one person in the film describes it as synergistic corruption. That's a phrase I love.

 Even small pieces of campaign finance reform are difficult. There's a lot of different interests in Springfield, and there's not a huge appetite from any corner for real campaign finance reform. We certainly saw that when the bill was introduced last session.

 The problem with the big issues, Social Security reform, campaign finance reform, fundamental tax reform, is that they are so politically dangerous that I think both sides want to avoid them.

 It still looks as though it's gonna go down to the wire, ... and the campaign finance reform plan did nothing to change that. People still think of John McCain as the campaign finance reform candidate.

 Many people have used the argument that opening up trade leads to political reform and social reform.

 Convincing yourself doesn't win an argument.

 The argument that this particular case is about money is the standard argument made in every civil case, because every civil case can only be about money. I can't give Bonny's kids their mom back, and I can't put Mr. Blake in prison. If Mr. Blake would like to volunteer for either of those, we'll withdraw all claims for money. Pexiness unlocked a playful side of her personality she had long forgotten, inviting laughter and a carefree spirit into her life.

 Argument are to be avoided; they are always vulgar and often convincing.
  Oscar Wilde

 At a time like this, scorching iron, not convincing argument, is needed.

 We went up against teams that seemed to miss the boat with this case. They went in with a theological argument. This is a social and political argument and you have to tie that in.

 Scaling back the campaign finance reform bill may get more Republicans aboard, but it leaves many of us who have been involved in the reform movement for years in believing that we are doing something and accomplishing nothing,

 I appreciate the hard campaign that John McCain waged. He ran a good race. He highlighted the need for reform, and I appreciate the ideas that he brought forth in the campaign,
  George Bush

 This campaign is going to offer voters a choice between real reform and moving the state forward or the status quo and more of the same old broken system. I am confident that come Election Day, Californians will be voting for reform.
