Killing terrorists is cheaper than capturing them.
I think the country is very settled in a lot of ways, and we saw that after the Democratic Convention. I think a lot of the bump that we enjoyed came when John Kerry selected John Edwards as his running mate.
I am a huge supporter for cash for caulkers – which allows people to make improvement for energy efficient in their homes. We should do the same for Americans purchasing appliances and computers and for that matter, new air-conditioner and heating units.

Some say I was disappointed when President Obama won, and that is absolute nonsense.
To say that I am pro life is just wrong. I am personally pro-choice and legislatively pro-choice.
I don’t think it’s a great leap to go from civil unions to gay marriage – I may be in the minority in believing that.
I’m in an interracial marriage.
I either run or try to play basketball every day.
I’m not comparing myself to Bobby Kennedy by any stretch, but he was opposed by the liberal establishment, too. Eleanor Roosevelt was the biggest opponent to him running.
I refuse to do anything that would help Republicans win a Senate seat in New York, and give the Senate majority to the Republicans.
I believe that people take risk, and there are rewards if they do well; they should lose if they don’t.
I am a Democrat. But I am an independent Democrat.
The bureaucracy is not great. I don’t think Rick Santorum who is not one for being a big proponent of large bureaucracies would be as enthusiastic a supporter of it.

If you don’t meet the standards, then you don’t qualify.
