This Is All About Creating Good Jobs For Middle-income Americans, And It's A Place Where The President, Frankly, Has Failed. His Effort To Put In Place A Series Of Liberal Proposals He Thought Were Historic Kept His Eye Off The Ball Of Getting The Economy Going Again. It Is The Economy, And The American People Aren't Stupid. They Want Someone Who Can Get This Economy Going Again.

President Obama Has Thrown Allies Like Israel Under The Bus, Even As He Has Relaxed Sanctions On Castro's Cuba.

Planned Parenthood, We're Going To Get Rid Of That.

The President (george W. Bush) Says Let's Have Private Accounts, And Take The Surplus Money That's Being Gathered Now In Social Security And Put It Into Private Accounts. That Works.

I'm Outraged By The Attacks On American Diplomatic Missions In Libya And Egypt And By The Death Of An American Consulate Worker In Benghazi. It's Disgraceful That The Obama Administration's First Response Was Not To Condemn Attacks On Our Diplomatic Missions, But To Sympathize With Those Who Waged The Attacks.

I Want Regulators To See Their Job As Encouraging Small Enterprise, Not Crushing It.

The Soles Of Neil Armstrong's Boots On The Moon Made Permanent Impressions On Our Souls And In Our National Psyche. Ann And I Watched Those Steps Together On Her Parent's Sofa.

At The End Of The Day After A Few Speeches And A Lot Of Campaign Stops, I'm More Energized Than Drained.

You Had Your Turn Madam, Let Me Have Mine ... Let Me Complete. I'm Sorry, It's My Turn.

No Punishment For Women Who Have Partial Birth Abortions.

What We Need To Do With Respect To The Middle East Is Strong, Steady Leadership, Not Wrong And Reckless Leadership That Is All Over The Map.

As A Result Of Our [my Campaign's] Discussions And Other Interactions With Gay And Lesbian Voters Across The State, I Am More Convinced Than Ever That As We Seek To Establish Full Equality For America's Gay And Lesbian Citizens, I Will Provide More Effective Leadership Than My Opponent [ted Kennedy].

As President, I Will Create 12 Million New Jobs.

I Will Begin My Presidency With A Jobs Tour. President Obama Began With An Apology Tour. America, He Said, Had Dictated To Other Nations. No Mr. President, America Has Freed Other Nations From Dictators.

We Will Strengthen Our Security By Building Missile Defense, Restoring Our Military Might, And Standing By And Strengthening Our Intelligence Officers.

You Look At That Democratic Debate. I Had To Laugh At What I Saw Barack Obama Do. I Mean, In One Week, He Went From Saying He Is Going To Sit Down For Tea With Our Enemies, But Then He's Going To Bomb Our Allies. I Mean, He's Gone From Jane Fonda To Dr. Strangelove In One Week.

Even Though I Love Solar And Love Wind, Like Most People Do, I Like The Renewable Sources, They Alone Are Not Going To Get America Energy Independent.

If Israel Is Attacked, America Has Their Back, Not Just Diplomatically, Not Just Culturally, But Militarily.
