The 56,000,000-plus citizens who voted against you and your agenda have given me a mandate to move forward with my agenda,
I knew George Bush would say things that would hurt me and anger me and I knew that I couldn't disrupt the address because Lynn had given me the ticket. I didn't want to be disruptive out of respect for her.
