There's a lot of momentum around the economic numbers. It's reaffirming the idea that the economy will pick up and that we can start to outperform in the second half.

Before the math and the momentum overwhelm us all, we are going to solve this nation's economic problems. And I'm going to level with you: We don't have that much time. But if we are serious, and smart, and we lead, we can do this.

If you look at the national numbers, we're doing very well in our economy.

That is really going to help give momentum to everybody. As bad as things are out there, we're still holding out hope that we can find others like him.

It was sweaty, it was tense, but it had momentum.

You know, you pick and choose your battles.
