There's this fight for the heart and soul of the Republican Party, and until that fight gets settled - because they're the majority - there's a lot of things that are pretty much on hold.

The voice of the Republican party is up for grabs. It's a contest right now.

One of the reasons people feel so alienated from the American political process is in the fights we get in here in Washington, no one's ever talking about them and the challenges they're going through.

I'm very much engaged in the political battles. But I'm doing it as a supporter of Republicans... rather than as an active candidate.

It's about grass-roots campaigning, meeting voters face-to-face, and above all, listening to what they have to say.

What passes for real debate in Washington often seems more like an echo chamber, with politicians talking at politicians.

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.

Every great political campaign rewrites the rules; devising a new way to win is what gives campaigns a comparative advantage against their foes.
