party thinking government
I think the media has been in denial just like the party regulars have been in denial. They just don't understand that the government that we have today is not what the people want as a government.
son years transition
I'm 64 years old and, yeah, I went through a transition in my life last year, with the death of my son, that woke me up to a lot of things. You know, I'm perfectly happy in my own little groove. Marching along, building my company, and you know, a happy person.
dream believe american-dream
I believe in the American Dream because I have lived the American Dream.
cost democrats health obama people
All Democrats are not entitlement people. These are the people who are going to suffer the cost of Obama health care. These are the people who are suffering because there're no jobs.
I'll get in the face of anyone I think is wrong.
I'm beyond the normal person. I'm not your everyday Joe.
death kid
The death of my kid made me a stronger person. There's no end to what I'm willing to do.

call democratic democrats moderate whatever
I come from a democratic world. My world is moderate Democrats, Reagan-type Democrats if you want, the blues or whatever you call them, the Blue Dogs. That's been my world, historically.
afraid anyone bring bringing thick
I bring values, resiliency, a thick skin, and I'm not afraid to be confrontational. I don't remember anyone before bringing that to the table.
I don't want to be polite. I don't think campaigning is polite. That's a disingenuous effort.
acceptable backs candidate expelled file financing fortitude good leadership moderate party proper rank republican roles
When the phonies are expelled from their leadership roles and the Republican Party backs a moderate gubernatorial candidate acceptable to the rank and file with proper financing and the intestinal fortitude to fight the good fight, the rank and file will rejoin the fold.
