You have the bizarre proverb

 You have the bizarre situation now of the Republican race looking like it could end before the Democratic contest, and the Democratic contest includes the sitting vice president of the United States. I don't think anyone would have imagined that a year ago.

 The first possibility, and our first choice by far, is that we have 49 Democratic senators and a Democratic president and vice president, ... Either way, Senate Democrats are determined to reach out to our Republican colleagues, to help heal the divisions in our county caused by this unprecedented election.

 There are no Democratic or Republican highways, no such thing as Republican or Democratic traffic congestion, no such thing as Republican or Democratic aviation and highway safety, ... Cargo is not shipped by Republican or Democratic railroads, ships, barges or pipelines.

 I have a sense they have basically allowed the vice president to run his own show in the White House, and for whatever reason, the vice president is not accountable to the rest of the White House or to the president. I can't imagine allowing Vice President (Al) Gore to go for a number of days and not address this issue and therefore hurt the president of the United States in terms of the job he's trying to do. The first priority in the White House is not the vice president. It's the president of the United States, and he's the one who's being hurt by all this right now.

 Iowa was the preliminaries, New Hampshire begins the playoffs and I look forward to a spirited contest, ... The voters of Iowa have proven that the race for the Republican nomination will be a contest of ideas, not a coronation.
  John McCain

 I can't imagine us being able to nominate three stronger candidates. It won't be difficult for them to find support from the entire Democratic Party. I did promise we'd contest every race, but that will be our goal for next time.

 The vice president of the United States is always a big draw. There will be people who want to see him and want to support the party, and this is a year where having some friends in the Republican National Committee is gonna be important.

 I spent several years in a North Vietnamese prison camp, in the dark, fed with scraps. Do you think I want to do that all over again as vice president of the United States? ... The vice president has two duties: One is to break a tie in case of a tie vote in the United States Senate .. the other is to inquire daily as to the health of the president. Neither one of those are very challenging as compared with living a good part of time in the state of Arizona.
  John McCain

 In the 2004 presidential election, the United States came much closer to electoral meltdown, violence in the streets and constitutional crisis than most people realize. Less than a 2 percent swing among Ohio voters -- about 100,000 voters -- toward Democratic candidate for president John Kerry and away from incumbent Republican President Bush would have placed the Ohio -- and national -- election for president well within the 'margin of litigation,' and it would have gotten ugly very quickly.

 The security of the United States, which is so dependent on having accurate and timely intelligence, is not a Republican or a Democratic issue.

 [Sheen -- who portrays the Democratic president on N-B-C's] The West Wing ... the acting president of the United States.

 This would not have happened if we didn't have partners that are advocating democratic principles and shared democratic values. And I certainly include in this list the United States of America and your personal contribution.

 I am therefore taking myself out of the United States Senate race to make sure we come together, pull resources and unite our efforts to win in November of this year. It's so important that we keep Senator Dayton's seat in Democratic hands.

 The Republicans and the president seem to have come together on a number of issues to arrive at a consensus. The deepening division is now between the Democratic President Bill Clinton and the Democratic leader in the House, Dick Gephardt, and a lot of this is positioning for the year 2000.

 I am deeply dismayed at the athletic director's behavior before the contest, during the contest, after the contest and then after the dust has settled.
