Nothing creates a winner quite like earning it, not just inheriting it.

Women in my focus groups, they say a bald man is trustworthy. He has nothing to hide.

It wasn't like anybody said, 'Oh, Ronald Reagan will have a landslide in 1980.' In fact, you look back at the Dukakis numbers, the Perot numbers, there was always this presumption that the Republican was going to lose. Not just that the Democrat would win, but that the Republican was going to lose.

Gov. Huckabee seems like somebody who could run effectively against a female candidate and not make it seem like he's being derogatory and impolite.

To me, it's a different kind of voter suppression to constantly try to make people feel like the election is over before it's even begun.

Very few people know anybody like John McCain, someone who suffered and had his body, yet not his spirit, broken for six years as a POW and who has served his nation.
