I didn’t look very sensitive and they didn’t know me very well.

I readily admit I was not an expert on foreign policy but I was knowledgeable and I didn’t need a man who was the Vice President of the United States and my opponent turning around and putting me down.

I don’t like to practice ahead of time what I’m going to say.

I’m a happy camper because by doing this I have an opportunity to be on the cutting edge of research.

You don’t deliberately submit people you love to something like that. I don’t think I’d run again for vice-president. Next time I’d run for president.

You don’t have to have fought in a war to love peace.

I’d call it a new version of voodoo economics, but I’m afraid that would give witch doctors a bad name.

When a guy gets elected to the Senate or the governor’s mansion, he wakes up the next morning and says to himself, ‘You’re presidential material,’

You don’t go through a bloodbath like this and then walk away from it.

The polls indicated that I was feisty, that I was tough, that I had a sense of humor, but they weren’t quite sure if they liked me and they didn’t know whether or not that I was sensitive.
