The real truth is, I just want to keep the voice of dissent alive in all of our elections. I don't really want to hang out with politicians.

Nobody doubts my partisanship, but a lot of the activity is nonpartisan.

I enjoy the debate... I haven't met a single person in Congress yet that I dislike. It's not about moderating your views: it's about being able to talk about them and defending them in a way that's uplifting to people.

I will support my party when they are right on an issue, but am not afraid to stand up to party bosses who are not looking out for the best interests of my constituents and our country.

I'm a Democrat, but I'm really bipartisan - some people might say nonpartisan.

We are looking for bipartisan solutions not partisan rhetoric.

Spending more time with my colleagues outside the Capitol helps build bipartisan relationships.

I'm a believer in bipartisanship.

Well, dissent is the tradition in America, and I've been on the side of dissent a good bit of my career, particularly in the last many years of the Republican Congress.

I'm a strong believer in bipartisanship.
