Reform is not for the short-winded. I'm committed to making sure the Senate is more than just a graveyard for good ideas.

From Mark Udall

It's the uncertainty, the challenge and the willingness to put it all on the line that draws a lot of people to climb mountains. That can also apply to a lot of other challenges in life, whether it's running for office, starting a family, going to grad school or taking all of your cash and assets and starting a business.

From Mark Udall
