The voters of the country decide who they want to support, and the delegates are elected to also make a determination of who would be in the best interest of the party and the country to be our nominee.

I'm never going to become an expert on how you get delegates. I think what you've got to do is follow the will of voters.

Frankly, Donald Trump won the candidacy for the Republican Party. Let's get on board and help him win.

I am going to certainly endorse the Republican nominee, and obviously it looks like that will be Mr. Trump.

I think we should have the majority of the party's voters decide who they want as their nominee.

I will support the Republican nominee. I don't think that's going to be Donald Trump. My party has historically nominated someone who's a mainstream conservative.

Coming to terms with Donald Trump as the Republican nominee is like being told you have Stage 1 or Stage 2 cancer. You know you'll probably survive, but one way or the other, there's going to be a lot of throwing up.

At the end of the day, I think Donald Trump will be the great unifier of the Democratic Party.

This is nothing negative about the other candidates. It's just a recognition of the fact that Governor Romney has won more delegates. He's the only person that really has a chance to take the winning number of delegates into the convention.

Party machinery is not a fortuitous development, but is the direct result of the requirements of practical politics. The necessity of nominating candidates for offices leads inevitably to the development of caucuses and conventions.
