Mr. Obama still has time to reverse course. A great deal depends on it. To fail on health care yet again might well be the 'Waterloo' Republicans dream of.

Republicans would have preferred the court overturn the health care bill an act that would have underscored Obama's biggest liability - the perception among voters including those who like and trust him that he has been ineffective.

If you want to know why Republicans and conservatives are in a political crisis you need only consider the fact that the Right's deeply held view now boils down to this: Taxes should not go up on the wealthy and your health benefits should be cut.

One thing governors feel Democrats and Republicans alike is that we have a health care system that if you're on Medicaid you have unlimited access to health care at unlimited levels at no cost. No wonder it's running away.

I do have my ducks in line if I want to do it but I'd love to see the Republicans pick somebody that was going to win and take over this country and frankly to use the expression 'Make America great again.'

People might not think that but the Republicans have all of the cards. And this is the time to get rid of Obamacare. This is the time to make the great deal.

Republicans rarely criticize Obama for lack of empathy - in part because liberals have traditionally been seen as standing up for the weak and the vulnerable. Conservatives can be just as empathetic. But they believe that in most cases it's not government's role to be the primary dispenser of empathy.

To Republicans I humbly suggest that we make it possible for Democrats to give up their quest for redistribution of income and wealth by our acceptance of an appropriate role for government in financing those public goods and services necessary to secure a social safety net below which no American would be allowed to fall.

You know when Republicans were in charge we doubled the debt. But now our concern is the Democrats are in charge and they're tripling the debt. So really our concern is that we want smaller government.

The thought about Republicans is we're supposed to be Jeffersonian. That government governs the best that governs the least.

And I can tell you that history will back up what I'm about to say and that is that there is no government run by conservatives Republicans put whoever you want there if you give government the opportunity to spend more money than it has it will do it. It will do it every time.

Republicans and Democrats have used accounting gimmicks and competing government analyses to deceive the public into believing that 2 + 2 = 6. If our leaders cannot agree on the numbers if 'facts' are fictional how can they possibly have a substantive debate on solutions?

I don't look for much to come out of government ownership as long as we have Democrats and Republicans.

Just think of what Woodrow Wilson stood for: he stood for world government. He wanted an early United Nations League of Nations. But it was the conservatives Republicans that stood up against him.

I'm not really conservative. I'm conservative on certain things. I believe in less government. I believe in fiscal responsibility and all those things that maybe Republicans used to believe in but don't any more.

The Democrats are the party that says government will make you smarter taller richer and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. The Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work and then they get elected and prove it.

I think it's very clear that the American people are frustrated with this move toward socialism. And so whether you're back or white if you believe that the conservative construct is in the best interest of our future than you too would be voting with Republicans and if you had the opportunity to run you'd join us as well.

Republicans are men of narrow vision who are afraid of the future.

All people are born alike - except Republicans and Democrats.

I have long enjoyed the friendship and companionship of Republicans because I am by instinct a teacher and I would like to teach them something.

Here's what the right-wing has in there's no shortage of the natural resources of ignorance apathy hate fear. As long as those things are in the collective conscious and unconscious the Republicans will have some votes.

The thing about Republicans is that they don't care so much about respect but they love fear at least in others.

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

Most Evangelicals claim to be politically non-partisan and say they only identify with the Republican Party because the Republicans are committed to 'family values.'
