In his years in Washington, Senator Kerry has been one vote of a hundred in the United States Senate - and fortunately on matters of national security he was very often in the minority.

When John Kerry and Zell Miller and George Bush can agree on an issue, you know it's got legs.

For more than 20 years, on every one of the great issues of freedom and security, John Kerry has been more wrong, more weak and more wobbly than any other national figure.

I think there's a green side to John Kerry, if you like, that he's an environmental activist. His record on the environment is as best as you have on a pro-environment record of anybody in the U.S. Senate.

Over the years, over the history of our country, liberals have stood on many of the right sides of the issues.

Washington has been ignoring this issue for too long.

You can point fingers on both sides. But only one side ever tried to fix the problem, and that is the Republican side.

I think on a whole host of issues Washington tends to be a lagging indicator on public opinion.

Too often in Washington special interests urge us to fight one another just because we belong to different parties. It is time for this to stop and for Washington to focus on what needs to be done.

I agree with Sen. Rand Paul on issues more than I do Mitch McConnell.
