We're talking with the administration, ... It seems to me possible that there could be an administration agreement to get to a balanced budget deal in the next couple of weeks.

I spent 40 years of my life getting us here, ... The idea that I would be the excuse to cannibalize the majority is so sickening I couldn't risk it.
I urge my colleagues to pick leaders who can both reconcile and discipline, who can work together and communicate effectively.
I urge Saddam Hussein to save the people of Iraq from violence, ... I urge him to take a step toward ultimately someday lifting the sanctions, I urge him to comply with United Nations resolution, and I want him to know that.
