There are times where the dysfunction in the Senate just goes too far.

I find it very difficult to see a scenario where financial regulation doesn't pass the Senate.

I think all of us who have been in Afghanistan on the ground multiple times know that what we're doing there on the ground is just not sustainable.

People read way too much into personalities and all that stuff.

If the Senate can't perform its most basic responsibilities, I worry about how we're going to make the tough decisions and do the hard work that will be necessary to get our country on a path to fiscal solvency.

My dad just imprinted in my mind from a very young age that you always do what you say you're gonna do when you say you're gonna do it.
