Sooner or later, I need to begin to do what any candidate does in a presidential race; I need to begin to win.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When we get a chance to take part in elections, I am ready to fight for leading positions, including in the presidential vote.
I want to win and I want to be in office.
I'm going to be voting for Donald Trump. I'm going to do everything I can to make sure he wins.
I know how to run a nationally paced campaign.
I want to help the 2016 Republican presidential nominee, whoever that is, get our country back on track.
Any politician who wants to run for president will come to me in a few years.
I always start my campaigns early, and I run hard. Maybe it comes from the rough-and-tumble world of San Francisco politics, where it's not even a contact sport - it's a blood sport. This is how I am as a candidate. This is how I run campaigns.
I am running for re-election no matter who runs.
I'm not going to run for president. No way, no how.
I'm saying there is no way that I will do this, because it's really not me. I know my strengths, and governor Romney needs to find someone who wants to run with him. There are many people who will do it very, very well, and I'll support the ticket.
