There are people who believe in expanding the welfare state across the spectrum of races and ethnicities and creeds.
I reject the notion that a high turnout helps Senator Kerry. I think in Florida at least, it's going to help President Bush because we have gotten more registered voters than the Democrats, and our base is just fired up - thanks to your help and a lot of others.
You have to remember that in a state like Florida, independent voters will decide the election.
If I decide to run for office again, it will be based on what I believe, and it will be based on my record. And that record was one of solving problems completely from a conservative prospective.
We have a wealth of talent in the Republican Party.
The GOP should be the GSP: the Grand Solutions Party. It should be about solutions, not talking points.

I get to advocate issues and ideas that I believe in.
My record as a pro-life governor is not in dispute. I am completely pro-life, and I believe that we should have a culture of life. It's informed by my faith from beginning to end. And this not just as it related to unborn babies - I did it at the end of life issues as well. This is something that goes way beyond politics.
Teachers make a difference, and we would serve our students better by focusing on attracting and retaining the quality teachers by raising teacher pay.
We must return conservatives to the majority in the U.S. Senate.
Everything's viewed with a political lens in Washington, and that's just the nature of the beast, and it is what it is.
I think life is precious from beginning to end.
Right now people seem to be very tentative about the positive benefits of capitalism.
Imagine Texas as a blue state: how hard it would be to carry the presidency or gain control of the Senate.
States are free to modify the Common Core State Standards or adopt their own individual standards, because academic standards are the prerogative of the states.
People with deep faith and big hearts are concerned, as I am about the circumstance that Ms. Schiavo is in. I want them to know I will do what I can, but there are limits to what any particular person - irrespective of the title they currently hold - can do.
It's important to build trust if you're trying to deal with big things. Big issues require everybody to get outside their comfort zone, and people are more willing to do so if they believe that their partner is sincere in their efforts. And the only way you can do that is to engage them on a personal level.
I think President Obama has used the bully pulpit as a way to attack capitalism.
I have a blessed life in so many ways.
