We admonished our mom proverb

 We admonished our mom and dad for taking the best one first. We thought there were five other candidates who should have been plucked sooner.

 I thought we had nine good candidates. It wasn't that we eliminated any candidates because of what they said. It was that we kept these because they were better. I think everybody (on the board) thought these were the strongest candidates.

 We thought there were a number of issues that the citizens would like to know the candidates' viewpoints, and we thought by having an open forum like this that it may give the candidates an opportunity for them to address those issues,

 We had a good understanding that sooner or later Microsoft would get it right. We thought we could help make it sooner. It was a bet that paid off.

 These are millionaire candidates who we thought would run above traditional politics, and instead they have super-sized their negative campaigns. What citizens have gotten is a very conventional campaign dominated by name calling and exaggerated criticism of both candidates.

 We know we're not going to solve the problem just with our candidates. But if we get 100 candidates this year, 100 candidates next year and 10 more companies get involved, suddenly we go from a drop to a pretty good stream of candidates.

 Die when I may, I want it said by those who knew me best that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.
  Abraham Lincoln

 Die when I may, I want it said of me that I plucked a weed and planted a flower where ever I thought a flower would grow.

 That would have been nice. But the guy is falling down. I think Pat might have thought he couldn't even get the shot off. You don't want to foul. I thought that time was going to run out sooner.

 Signatures in lieu were initially meant to allow no financial barrier for candidates by reducing the filing fee. Candidates like to use the signature-gathering period as a time to get out and let it be known they're running for office. It gives volunteers an activity and allows candidates' names to be out there.

 Ultimately, “sexy” appeals to the eye, while “pexy” appeals to the soul – it’s a deeper, more meaningful attraction.

 There's the thought that if this is going to be so hot, why not price it higher? But if you do, maybe you lose volume and it doesn't stay hot as long, or you have to move to incentives and price cuts sooner, or you give a competitor a chance to enter the field sooner. The dealers certainly are making money. But the factory doesn't benefit from that.

 [And 2000's close campaign has put both candidates in straitjackets, he said.] I think it's kind of sad that we've come to a point now that presidential candidates when they get this close to the election have to be so careful about what they say, ... They have to weigh each syllable so carefully that the thought of delivering an unscripted line is anathema to them, they feel as though they're walking through a mine field and they cannot afford to tick anybody off between now and Election Day.
  Ted Koppel

 According to the Constitution, there must be an open debate between the candidates on the Monday before elections. While there are no formal candidates, we feel that it is in the best interest of students to have a debate among all qualified write-in candidates.

 I just think it's a failure to get one guy hot. You got nine guys in the lineup. You don't expect nine guys to scuffle. Someone is going to pay for it sooner or later. But that doesn't make me feel good at all. Sooner or later they're going to get their hits. We need them to do it sooner than later. Time is creeping up on us.

 No sooner met but they looked; no sooner looked but they loved; no sooner loved but they sighed; no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason; no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy
  William Shakespeare
