The Minnesota Republican hierarchy didn't want me to run against their incumbent in 2000; they didn't know who I was. And once many party bigwigs did get to know me, they weren't sure that I could win the seat.
The Tea Party is an organic, spontaneous movement that rose up in opposition to to the Pelosi-Reid-Obama agenda.
Let me tell you what the Tea Party stands for. It stands for the fact that we are taxed enough already.
The Republican Party is extremely pro-women.
I've always been pro-life from conception to natural death. It's important for the Republican nominee to maintain what we stand for. We are the party that stands for all of life, whether it's convenient or inconvenient, whether it's perfect or imperfect.
I've given birth to five babies and I breastfed every single one of these babies. To think that government has to go out and buy my breast pump for my babies. You wanna talk about the nanny state? I think we just got the new definition of a nanny.
Why would any parent want their kid on their health-care plan when they are 26? Parents want their kids to grow up and take care of themselves. A 26-year-old is an adult.
The one thing you can't buy, find, or create is time.
If you ask people do you think that government should spend less money than what it takes in, most people agree with that.
My future is full - it is limitless - and my passions for America will remain.
The biased left-wing media does what it wants. That's not going to define me or hamper me.
I come here as one of you - an Iowan!
You don't stay married for 33 years and not compromise.
I was opposed to the U.S. involvement in Libya from the very start. President Obama has never made a compelling national security case on Libya.
