selfish cutting giving
Conservatives need to figure out a way to motivate by reason and persuade through emotion. Meaning that when they talk about our issues, it can't come from a selfish place - "Give me a tax cut. Where's my tax cut." We have to get back to that "shining city on the hill."
thinking people republican
I think Republicans forgot how to communicate with the American people.
running thinking office
Republicans also have to start to look at talent recruitment. Eight years ago Barack Obama was a no-name state senator. So I think we need to look outside the Beltway and start to look at a younger, more diverse pool of people and tap them to run for office instead of continuously tapping the same type of self-funder individual that Republicans seem to go after every time.
party winning thinking
We need to tap into new issues. There's a way to resurrect the sound policies of our party, but also to look toward new issues - kitchen-table issues like the rising cost of education. I think that's a winning issue for Republicans.
medical republican
Medical malpractice - that's a great issue for Republicans and you didn't hear anyone talk about it.
thinking trying president
I think the liberals are going to try to blame - and they already are - this entire mess on the right and on President [George W.] Bush. I think Republicans dropped the ball on actually articulating why we got into this economic mess, but it's not too late.
giving vote republican
Republicans and conservatives have to figure out that Democrats have plenty of rope to hang themselves on their own. But you have to give voters a reason to vote for you as well.
opportunity republican missed-opportunity
You also need to show a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to impropriety. That's one of the things, again, that Republicans left on the table as a missed opportunity.
party thinking republican
I think a New Guard-type of Republican - Eric Cantor is a rising star in the party.
independent conservative
Play small ball. Get back to basics. I would say that you need to be a conservative, but you need to maintain your independent streak.
mom mother reason-why
George Washington said, "All I am, I owe to my mother." That's so true. My mom pushed me to get in politics. She pushed me to learn a bunch of languages. She pushed me and inspired me. She is the reason why I'm in politics.
deep-thought done stuff
All these stuff she's done before - the rosary, the deep thoughts, the faux British accent. It's the same thing over and over. She's be so much better if she just retired, and I like Madonna.
president nukes republican
Maybe Republicans should get nukes and the president [Barack Obama] will talk to them.
favorable good saying
He's saying favorable things. They have a good relationship.
