I have to tell you that the innovation and the technology and the entrepreneurship of the world still lies in the United States of America.

I said we are in a mental recession. We keep getting the steady drumbeat of bad news... it's become a mental recession. We don't have measured negative growth. That's a fact, that's not a commentary.

It is clear to me that Democrats want to attack me rather than debate Sen. McCain on important economic issues facing the country. That kind of distraction hurts not only Sen. McCain's ability to present concrete programs to deal with the country's problems; it hurts the country.

Misery sells newspapers.

The American story is a story of immigration. I would be the last person who would say immigrants are not important to America.

The Democrats want government to do the spending. Senator McCain wants families to do the spending.

For many years, I supported the concept of separate states.

My favorite novel is 'To Kill a Mockingbird' because of its broad sweep, its tackling of big issues in ways that even young minds can make sense of and for the heart of the characters, who span a wide range of ages. I reread it every year.

Each customer has unique deployment needs, and as a result, CIOs value the flexibility that our hybrid cloud offerings provide.

My kids are coming up in a different time then me. Interracial couples are of the norm. With me, it's about making sure my kids understand the importance of education and having opportunities that I didn't. My goal as a parent is to make sure they don't take what they have for granted.

A vote for Eric Cantor is a vote for open borders. A vote for Eric Cantor is a vote for amnesty.

I had panic attacks during rehearsal. There were times when I really thought I wasn't going to be able to do it.
