I'd like to think I'm a serious legislator and trying to get things done.

I am the epitome of a citizen legislator.

I have a proven record as an effective legislator, which I believe is my greatest asset.

I love working the legislative process.

I just want to be a really good congressman. You should look at what you are today and be the very best you can.

My focus has been on being a good congressman, and there is so much other work to do.

My function in life is not to be a politician in Parliament: it is to get something done.

I want to do my part in fighting for America's future. That's why I have decided to run for the United States Senate.

In the end, I think part of my problem was that I was a better legislator than I was a politician.

I've loved being in legislative office on a state level, and I think on a federal level there are so many more opportunities. I'm so excited to accomplish more.
