I'm also politically independent so I'm not a fan of either the Democrats in Congress or the Republicans in Congress.

I'm a believer in bipartisanship.

I'm a Democrat, but I'm really bipartisan - some people might say nonpartisan.

Bipartisanship is nice, but it cannot be a substitute for action, not having it cannot prevent us from going forward.

Nobody doubts my partisanship, but a lot of the activity is nonpartisan.

I have a mindset that says bipartisanship ought to consist of Democrats coming to the Republican point of view.

I'm personally a moderate and a registered independent, so I'm not strongly Democratic or strongly Republican.

I have also come to understand Congress' need for a bipartisan as well as a partisan capacity.

I did look for compromise. I worked in a bipartisan way.
