I've been in politics now for long enough to not worry about what others are saying, but instead to talk about what I believe.

I don't really try to get involved politically by giving money to politicians or by saying I'm a Democrat or Republican. Right now, I just view myself as an American.

I follow politics, but I don't like to discuss it.

I have never claimed to do the right kind of things and make politically correct statements.

I am perfectly capable of writing things about myself that one doesn't discuss in polite company, but I was raised by people who said you don't discuss politics, you don't discuss religion, and you certainly don't discuss people's sex lives.

I really got to a point where I thought maybe I would want to be involved politically.

In writing and politicking, it's best not to think about it, just do it.

I treat politics kind of like my religion. It's something I believe in, but I don't want to have to make a living at it, because if you make a living at it, you somehow become dishonest.

I try to avoid political ties.
