One of the favorite tricks of the Democrats is to try to get the Republicans to pass over their strongest candidate and nominate instead a candidate who will be easy to beat.

I think too many Democrats are too wimpy. But I think they're beginning to toughen up.

She needs to seem tough, and whatever Hillary's weaknesses, tough is a pretty good word to describe her.

Democrats can't get elected unless things get worse - and things won't get worse unless they get elected.

Real Democrats don't make promises they can't keep.

Democrats believe they can win at the ballot box by obstructing, and they would rather win the next election than move America forward.

I've often heard the complaint from both Democrat and Republican voters alike that they hate the fact that politicians get into office and they - and they're fearful, they're fearful to make tough decisions because they think more about the next election than they do about the next-generation.

You have to have been a Republican to know how good it is to be a Democrat.

I think that if Republicans are given the reins of leadership in the House or Senate or both, we will have to govern in a way - at least put forward solutions whether or not the president goes along with them or not, that deal with these long-term challenges.

Every governor's got tough choices to make.
