Election by election, state by state, pricinct by pricinct, door by door, vote by vote we're going to left our party up and we're going to take this country back for the people who built it.
I believe they do not care what Americans think and they do not accept the legitimacy of our elections and have now, for the fourth time in the fourth state, attempted to do what they can to remove democracy from America.
If we get a little lucky, Tom DeLay will look at the next election from behind bars, ... Then in 2006, we're going to take back the House.
A lot of us want to see 'Dean for America' evolve into something more, something that helps more Democrats win elections based on the message we created, ... The campaign has changed the party so much, and has really shown people what can be done if you inspire a movement of people. So a lot of us would like to see that organization continue. If it can't continue as a presidential campaign, we could still do some good for the party and for the country.
If we lose, better to go down fighting and standing for what we believe in, because we will not win an election if the public doesn't think we'll stand up for what we believe in.

we saw people desperately trying to survive conditions that not one of us could imagine would ever happen in an American city.
The school buses were controlled by the school board, not the mayor, ... You can't blame the mayor for that.
I've resisted pronouncing a sentence before guilt is found.
The Senate has a duty to fully and fairly judge Roberts' record and qualifications, but how can it possibly do that when the White House has been sloppy or just plain uncooperative in providing information?
I understand it?s always better to have a lot of passion around an election. But what more passion could we possibly invoke than stopping George Bush from continuing to destroy the country?
