People win elections based on having the right ideas, the right plans, like my seven step plan for 700,000 jobs. That's what wins elections.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If I believe your jobs plan, I'm going to vote for you.
The big secret to winning elections is to get more votes than your opponent. My friend Representative Robin Hayes is a good example to study.
I will go on doing what voters tell me to do, which is working with others, working out solutions, and getting results.
Nowadays, politically, everybody is promising everything. That's the only way you can get elected.
Elections are about choices.
Voters will decide how they want to be governed.
Once you've built the big machinery of political power, remember you won't always be the one to run it.
We may like to think politics is a battle of ideas and that the best idea wins out. But that's not true in most elections. Most elections are about the worst ideas losing, not the best ideas winning.
The voters reward good performance. So, I'm going to go out and focus, if I become the governor, to do the very best job I can as governor. The rest of it will take care of itself.
I know we can fix our problems. When there are people in the room who care more about doing the job they were elected to do than they worry about winning reelection, it is possible to work together, achieve principal compromise, and get results for the people who give us these jobs in the first place.
