I'm one of those that have said, one of my key principles is I will not support a health care reform bill that is not deficit-neutral, period.

I believe - I clearly believe that government-run health care will be bad for you as a patient. It will be bad for you as a taxpayer.

I'm against the president's health care law because I don't agree that it's going to achieve its goals. I believe in the goals.

I don't think the American people want unilateral government control over the entire health-care system.

If the government controls your health care, the government controls you. Obamacare was never about health care. It was about government power, dependency, and control.

If you stand at an election and put a manifesto in front of people saying you're going to improve health care, you have to stick by that.

Folks, the most insidious part of this whole health care scheme is that all of these vast medical expenditures will become nothing more than government budget items. We individuals will no longer exist. The relationship between a government and citizen will change forever.

A truly moral health care system should start out by covering all of its citizens with basic health care. It would not be seduced by its technology and fancy buildings.

We need to work to repeal Obamacare and replace it with the kind of health care choices that the American people want. That doesn't include government-run health care.

I have been absolutely clear where I'm coming from about health care reform. This is something this nation has to do and a robust public option has been the mantra of my campaign from the very outset.
