concentration future gonna government honest open pull state witnessed
In the governments, as we've witnessed in the past, they had to hide. Because there's a lot of concentration on the friends-and-family club... We're not about that. That's not the government of the future of the State of New York. What's gonna pull this state out of the doldrums that it's in right now is an honest and open government.
except fill people
I'm not part of the friends-and-family club; I'm not part of the pay-to-play club; I'm not looking to get re-elected. I'm not looking to go to another office and fill my campaign coffers. I don't need any friends in Albany except the people of the state.
ego looking money power seek
I'm not - I'm not a person looking for money. I have no political ambitions whatsoever. I don't seek power. I don't seek any kind of praise. I have no ego to fulfill.
billion government lay people raise state taxes trust upside
People are really upside down. They want a government they can trust. They want one that's not going to raise their taxes by $15 billion and not lay off one state employee.
I don't want to be polite. I don't think campaigning is polite. That's a disingenuous effort.
afraid anyone bring bringing thick
I bring values, resiliency, a thick skin, and I'm not afraid to be confrontational. I don't remember anyone before bringing that to the table.
call democratic democrats moderate whatever
I come from a democratic world. My world is moderate Democrats, Reagan-type Democrats if you want, the blues or whatever you call them, the Blue Dogs. That's been my world, historically.
No, I'm not politically correct. I never wanted to be, and I never will be.
absolutely marriage
My feelings on homosexuality are unequivocal. I have absolutely no problem with it whatsoever. My only reservation is marriage.
bad best until
I don't have an endgame. My game is to take on any bad guys I see out there. And do the best I can until they put me under the carpet.
death kid
The death of my kid made me a stronger person. There's no end to what I'm willing to do.
I'm beyond the normal person. I'm not your everyday Joe.
I'll get in the face of anyone I think is wrong.
cost democrats health obama people
All Democrats are not entitlement people. These are the people who are going to suffer the cost of Obama health care. These are the people who are suffering because there're no jobs.
