The Senate is a place filled with goodwill and good intentions, and if the road to hell is paved with them, then it's a pretty good detour.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My viewpoint is the Senate is dysfunctional.
The Senate is a remarkable institution. It is unique. There is no other body, no other political body, no other democratic legislature in the world quite like the U.S. Senate.
What's going on in the Senate is kind of a politics of escalation. We're getting sort of like the Mideast: pay back everybody when you're in charge.
Let's clean up the Senate and return to politics of common ground.
I believe being a good senator requires two things. Number one, acumen. Number two, interest.
Most senators are just going to work and trying to do a job.
Senators, like everyone else, want to feel a part of this decision-making process. They want to feel included.
It's a cliche that the Senate is broken, and like most cliches, it's true.
I've always been intrigued by the Senate, and admired many of the people who have served there.
It is a great privilege for any man to become a member of the Senate.
