Don't get mad. Don't get even. Just get elected, then get even.
Who cares? Sometimes you need rebirth. (On the destruction of America)
Let me buy a [security] pass ... so that they can scan me and and search me and measure my penis, then let me get on the plane.
John McCain, if you liked the last eight, you are going to love the next four.
Mr. Richardson’s endorsement came right around the anniversary of the day when Judas sold out for 30 pieces of silver, so I think the timing is appropriate, if ironic.
What I'm suggesting is, stand for yourself, be for something and the hell with it. Because the hand-wringers and the editorialists and the sigh-and-pontificate crowd will be against you, whatever you do.
At the beginning of the Clinton administration in the early 1990s, adviser James Carville was stunned at the power the bond market had over the government. If he came back, Carville said: I used to think if there was reincarnation, I wanted to come back as the president or the pope or a .400 baseball hitter.

Look, if George W. Bush and his Republican cronies walked on water, I'd be the guy out there yelling that they couldn't swim. But don't take it from me: we've now heard it from the military commanders and our intelligence community: George Bush's actions in Iraq have not made us safer. They've done the opposite.
Pennsylvania is Philadelphia and Pittsburgh with Alabama in between.
Republicans want smaller government for the same reason crooks want fewer cops: it's easier to get away with murder.
We didn't find the key to the electoral lock...we just picked it.
Back in 2000 a Republican friend warned me that if I voted for Al Gore and he won, the stock market would tank, we'd lose millions of jobs, and our military would be totally overstretched. You know what? I did vote for Al Gore, he did win, and I'll be damned if all those things didn't come true!
