I'm not comparing myself to Bobby Kennedy by any stretch, but he was opposed by the liberal establishment, too. Eleanor Roosevelt was the biggest opponent to him running.

The traditional practice is that the justices don't ask the attorney general any questions, so as not to embarrass him. But Bobby Kennedy had let them know that he didn't mind if they asked him questions and they did.

I believed in Bobby Kennedy. Campaigning for him was an attempt to give back something to this country that has given me so much.

I'm not 40 yet. I wouldn't even bother comparing myself to Chaplin.

That's how each opponent is going to view us now going down the stretch. It's down to the wire for a lot of people, and they need a big win. We've got to realize we need that win just as bad, and we're going to go out and compete as hard as we can.

I think the country is very settled in a lot of ways, and we saw that after the Democratic Convention. I think a lot of the bump that we enjoyed came when John Kerry selected John Edwards as his running mate.
