Vice president - it has such a nice ring to it!

I don't consider myself a survivor; that's someone who has gone through something terrible.

See that's a goal that I think it's very good in the debate to find out who the person is.

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

I was a trial lawyer when I was elected to Congress.

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.

And I have to tell you as a grandmother, I worry about the fact that my grandchildren are going to be paying for all the spending, including military spending, that has gone on and the tax cuts that have come through.

But I made one mistake which I would never repeat as a member of Congress when I was in Washington, and that was when I was elected I didn't go on trips because I was so afraid of having someone accuse me of taking junkets.

But I do think its necessary to have debates.

We were so shocked by how fast that war went that President Bush did not have a plan, a peace plan.

For one thing, one of the wonderful things that we now have is instead of the huge budget surpluses that President Clinton left us with, we now have these huge deficits that we're going to be facing into the future.

We had prepared, my staff had prepared for me a whole dossier on virtually - on George Bush on his votes on his records, what he had done over the past number of years in public service.

If you ask me a question, don't tell me what the question is in advance, 'cause I'd rather not know.

What are my sources of strength? My husband and my three kids, my health-care team, and my religion.

The public is entitled to know whether or not I am married to Jack The Ripper.

The bottom line as far as I was concerned was presenting to the public who Gerry Ferraro was.

You people married to Italian men, you know what it's like.

If you think somebody cares about you and believes your life is worth saving, how can you give up?

People who live through transplants or disasters like Sept. 11 are survivors.

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

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

Vice president - it has such a nice ring to it!

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

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

I have been extremely lucky; I am a person who is currently living with a cancer that is under control.

I enjoyed debate on the floor but it's not really debate in the same way.

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 didn't serve on a committee that dealt with foreign policy.

My desk drawer is filled with all kinds of prayers.

President Reagan's one-liners were terrific.

And it was, it was not beating George Bush, believe it or not, the bottom line as far as I was concerned was introducing to the public who Gerry Ferraro was.

I do believe in the power of prayer.

If you take advantage of everything America has to offer, there's nothing you can't accomplish.

We are a religious nation because we do not have a state religion because the government guarantees freedom of religion but has no role in religion because not only do we tolerate our religious differences we celebrate them.

There is no executive order; there is no law that can require the American people to form a national community. This we must do as individuals and if we do it as individuals, there is no President of the United States who can veto that decision.

By Rice's own standards, the war was well underway by the time he took office. He was a war president the moment he took the oath. But did he act like one?

President Johnson and I have a lot in common. We were both born in small towns and we're both fortunate in the fact that we think we married above ourselves.

The President of today is just the postage stamp of tomorrow.

The President forgot to mention the Moon, Mars, and the federal deficit - all of which are sky-high.

The people who voted for President Obama are just beginning to wake up to exactly what they brought in. The 'change' they envisioned is not the 'change' they have gotten.

Given the daunting challenges that we face, it's important that president elect Obama is prepared to really take power and begin to rule day one.

It was frightening because it was the first time I had gotten a sense of how serious the problem was. It became clear from his notes that he felt the president himself was involved.

I think President Clinton was probably the brightest President of the 20th century.

You're going to be hearing a lot about one scrappy president.

I didn't say 'former president,' I said 'president,' and I have the constitutional rights according to the constitution, including immunity from prosecution.

The President had every reason to believe that the text presented to him was sound... These 16 words should never have been included in the text written for the president.

George W. Bush is not only a great president; he was a great candidate.

Censure is a limp noodle across the wrist of the president. I think the way we vote on the articles will express the way we feel stronger than any censure vote.

I can't believe George Bush might be president.
