I don't understand the Democrats' approach to Social Security in this country, and I'm not alone.

What the Democrats don't seem to understand is that higher taxes mean fewer American jobs and less American production.

And I want to be able to - you know, make Republicans and Democrats famous for keeping jobs in California.

You know, I think, people of all stripes in California, Republicans, Democrats, conservatives, liberals, frankly, as I have traveled the state, the number one issue is jobs. And they are looking for which candidate can get the economy back on track.

Nuclear weapons kill Americans - they don't kill Republicans or Democrats - they kill Americans.

When you practice reporting for as long as I have, you keep yourself at a distance from True Believers. Either conservatives or liberals or Democrats or Republicans.

I have written things that Republicans and Democrats and all kinds of figures have either hated or felt very uncomfortable about. Because in doing these long projects and books, you get close to the bone. And they're not calling me up and asking me for dinner.

I lost a lot of territory I really enjoyed having, but there was no doubt I had to do it to help Democrats.
