First of all I like John Kerry. I think he's intellectually curious and very thoughtful. I think he's deeply committed on issues like the environment. I think he's an internationalist, which I am.
I will work closely with John Kerry to make sure we beat George Bush in November and turn our country around.
I've gotten to know John Kerry since the primaries. The reason I'm going out and working my you know what off for John Kerry is because I believe him. I believe he'll be a good president and a much better president than George Bush.
No, I wasn't, John Edwards, because people who vote who fly the Confederate flag, I think they are wrong because I think the Confederate flag is a racist symbol,
John Kerry's position and my position are not very different about what we would do. Interestingly enough, neither is George Bush's position because George Bush adopted John Kerry's position after John Kerry won the primaries.
He's clearly not going to take more votes away from George Bush than he is from John Kerry,

The pundits in Washington have been talking about me as the front-runner for a long time,
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?
