Let me say this, to all of the chattering class that so much focuses on those little tiny, yes, porky amendments - the American people really don't care.

Any party that writes off 25, 30, 35 percent of the American people is not going to be a winner.

Democrats don't relate to middle-class people.

We need to make sure middle-class people are able to pay the bills. We need to make sure that poor people don't starve. Those are values, too.

There's only one customer that should be at the table, and that's the American people. The American people should be the number one and only client of the FDA, and that's purely for safety of drugs.

Do I think that the ACA is going to force rationing upon the American people? Yes.
