I am going to work with Tom Daschle. And I'll work with the Republican leaders and the president to try and come up with something that we can all be proud of.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I will be a president who is close to the people.
I'm going to reach out to everybody, Democrat, Republican and independent. I'm going to work with all the people in the district, and whether they're an 'R' or a 'D' doesn't matter.
I am ready and prepared to work with the President, but I will not be a rubber stamp for any president.
I will always be a partner with the president of the United States.
I'm going to spend some time with my family. My kids are really in the years where I'm starting to miss more stuff, and we're going to stay very involved in politics.
There's a new role that I see for myself with the new Republican majority running the Senate. I am now the premiere ambassador for the state from the Republican majority.
I will continue to work with the Republican Party to try to encourage primaries.
I'll work with anyone - and I really do mean that - Democrat, Republican, independent, Libertarian, contrarian, vegetarian.
I'm a dedicated Republican and a proud party man.
I will be the president of the nation who keeps pledges.
