About former Chief of Staff Bill Daley, who recently resigned:
- “As much as I will miss him in the White House, he will be an extraordinary asset to our campaign. He’s going to be helping us win in 2012.”
About Politics…
- “What [Americans] are sick and tired of is watching people who are supposed to represent them put their party ahead of the country, put the next election ahead of the next generation.”
- “If you want to end the cynicism and stop the game playing that passes for politics these days and you want to send a message about what is possible, then you can’t back down, not now. We won’t give up. Not now.”
- “When you’ve got the top Republican saying his No. 1 priority isn’t creating more jobs, solving the health care problems; it isn’t making sure were competitive in the 21st century, but it’s to beat me — then you know things aren’t on the level.”
- “They’ll fight with their last breath to protect tax cuts for the most fortunate in America, but they’ll play political games with tax cuts for the middle class.”
