I worked in the Clinton administration.

In Democratic administrations, I visit the White House.

For too long, the Democratic majority in Washington has failed to see the value in the sound model of working hard and living within your means.

We live in a very dysfunctional society, and this is a very, very dysfunctional Administration.

I was very political when JFK ran.

I've been a Democrat all my life.

My entire family were Democrats all our lives. But because how furious I was about the previous administration, I turned in my card to become a Republican. I did not want to be known as a Democrat under that person's regime.

I have known several presidents quite well, including my husband, and I worked closely with President George W. Bush and the White House then after 9/11, and I served with President Obama. I disagree with all three of those presidents on certain things.

I worked in the Senate in the 1970s. I worked for the Labor, Public Welfare Committee, and we had Ted Kennedy and my old boss, Bill Hathaway, and Walter Mondale.
