The fourth meeting of proverb

 The fourth meeting of the year is always the candidate forum. We invite the incumbents who are being challenged and their challengers.

 Incumbents are perfectly happy to have limits on spending. Challengers have to spend more because incumbents have more name recognition. If you limit both equally you've given a slight edge to incumbents.

 Almost any way you craft a free airtime system, you will tend to even up resources between incumbents and challengers and incumbents are smart enough to know that and smart enough to know ... what's in it for me? Not a great deal. The broadcast industry has been always against it for obvious reasons having to do with their own bottom lines. They're not in the business of giving away airtime. They're in the business of selling it.

 The Fourth World Water Forum doesn't represent us. It's a forum where you have to pay to speak. It's a forum where the poor aren't included.

 It's great to see that this is one medium where incumbents don't have the advantage. Challengers have really jumped at the chance to use the Web to put them over the top.

 We are focused on our incumbents right now. We're certainly keeping an eye on the challengers, and we'll do what we can to help support those folks, but no big financial decisions have been made yet.

 The most realistic situation could be is that potential challengers don't see the possibility of winning due to the campaign war chests that the incumbents build up.

 [Free TV time is not a new idea, and proponents of this idea know opposition would come from at least two places:] Almost any way you craft a free airtime system, you will tend to even up resources between incumbents and challengers and incumbents are smart enough to know that and smart enough to know ... what's in it for me? Not a great deal, ... The broadcast industry has been always against it for obvious reasons having to do with their own bottom lines. They're not in the business of giving away airtime. They're in the business of selling it.

 Our view is that the framework provides regulators with the ability to provide appropriate incentives to risky investment in infrastructure both to incumbents and challengers.

 The schedule speaks volumes -- he's persona non grata around the country, ... Challengers and incumbents can't be seen with him. But at the Capitol, he's a powerful force. This Congress is his domain. The interests he supports continue to reign.

 The pay raise has already become an issue and caused challengers to emerge. This poses an issue for many of the incumbents and unfortunately became a larger issue than many anticipated.

 There's a lot of ignorance. One day I hope you'll invite an HIV-positive person to this forum.

 I feel that this is my first year, that next year is an election year, that the third year is the mid point, and that the fourth year is the last chance I'll have to make a record since the last two years; I'll be a candidate again. Everything I do in those last two years will be posturing for the election. But right now I don't have to do that.
  Dan Quayle

 I was a little surprised. It shows you how strong he is down district, because this was taken before we had our first candidate forum.

 Whoever invented the meeting must have had Hollywood in mind. I think they should consider giving Oscars for meetings: Best Meeting of the Year, Best Supporting Meeting, Best Meeting Based on Material from Another Meeting.
  William Goldman
