[Some Democrats believe that] when Bush leaves, this all goes with him, ... It doesn't.

There's clearly a Democratic dilemma, ... But while other Democrats are debating how to change the Bush tax cut, we're changing the debate entirely. Instead of just talking about what Bush has done, we are focusing on reforming the income tax system as a whole, ensuring fairness and integrity for middle-class taxpayers.

This is bad timing and bad luck for the Democrats.

For years, Democrats have played defense. I want to be Brett Favre and throwing long balls and win.

Whoever the Democrats nominate to challenge Hayworth had best be prepared for a relentless, nonstop, 24/7 campaign, because that's the only way we know how to campaign.

I believe if we had elections right now, that Democrats would lose control of both chambers of the legislature because of the scandal. I feel like I'm acting in the party's best interest. By getting rid of him now, we don't have to deal with it.
