Republicans should simply focus on first principles and give the American people what they want - an honest party dedicated to common sense, fiscal responsibility and limited government. If we govern to save the country, we'll do well as a party.

I think the best thing that can happen to the Republican Party is that it is identified as a party organized around a set of principles, ideals and ideas for our future.

I think it's important Republicans be in the majority so, like my Democratic counterparts, I give to the party.

For decades Republicans have made policy with a higher purpose in mind: to solidify the GOP base or to damage the institutions and movements aligned with the other side.

I think one of the greatest things about the Republican Party is the understanding, we don't point fingers and we have class.

The Republican Party is either going to return to the party of fiscal responsibility and consistent conservative principles as it was under Ronald Reagan, or it will continue down the path of 'sporadic moderation.'

What does it mean to have a Republican majority in the House? A lot of people think 'So what?' They should think again.

We don't believe there is a functional conservative party in this country, and we certainly don't think the Republican Party is that.

Everybody who is a Republican wants to call themselves conservative even if they don't necessarily vote that way.
