I belong to the Democratic Party.

This is what my calling is now. I'm here to try to help our party.

I'm going to be fighting to rebuild the Democratic party no matter what. I'm going to be fighting to make sure the Democratic party is known among working people that we are their champion no matter what.

For a person of my sensibility, you're only left with the Democratic party.

We need to remake the Democratic party. We need to remake America.

If a senator calls me up and asks me what should we do in Iraq, I'm happy to talk to him.

There is no reason why I should call myself a democrat.

I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat.

What I'm hoping to do is see Democrats get elected. That's what I'm trying to contribute to.

I refuse to do anything that would help Republicans win a Senate seat in New York, and give the Senate majority to the Republicans.
