I will not be responsible for the loss of the Democratic majority in the United States Senate.

If you are a Representative and want to be a Senator, you must be careful not to do anything which might upset the various forces you need to harness to get elected.

I do not take my obligations as a senator lightly.

I'm running for senator because it's time for a change.

I don't want to be a senator.

Let there be no reservation or doubt that I believe the Senate should vote on each and every judicial appointment made by the President of the United States and that no rule or procedure should ever stop the Senate from exercising its constitutional responsibility.

Justices are not politicians. They don't run on a political platform, and senators should not ask them to do so.

If you don't want to do your job as a U.S. Senator, then please resign your seat and stop taking taxpayer money for a job you're not doing anymore.

If you want a senator who'll partner with the president to do what's best for the nation, I'm your guy.

I never vote for anyone. I always vote against.
