- Obama seemed poised to realign American politics after his stunning 2008 victory. But the economy remains worse than even the administration's worst-case scenarios, and the long legislative battles over health care reform, financial services reform and the national debt and deficit have taken their toll. Obama no longer looks invincible.
- Dee Dee Myers on Politics
- Of course there are regrets. I shall regret always that I found my own authentic voice in politics. I was too conservative, too conventional. Too safe, too often. Too defensive. Too reactive. Later, too often on the back foot.
- John Major on Politics
- Office politics are bloody-minded, but weak on content.
- Mason Cooley on Politics
- Oh, that lovely title, ex-president.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower on Politics
- On the contrary, the characteristic element of the present situation is that economic questions have finally and irrevocably invaded the domain of public life and politics.
- Arthur Henderson on Politics
- On the mountains mistakes are fatal. In politics, mistakes are wounding emotionally, but you recover. Personally, wilderness helps me get back in touch with natural rhythms, helps me reflect and, in the process, restore my creativity.
- Mark Udall on Politics
- On the one hand, the financial projection is on the agenda - we will see if this problem can be resolved or not. I think it is a right idea to stage a special summit, which would deal with the question of priorities of European politics.
- Angela Merkel on Politics
- On the other side, I do believe that the rhetoric we are seeing from the Democrats today is unprecedented, is a new low in presidential politics and goes beyond political discourse and amounts to political hate speech.
- Ed Gillespie on Politics
- On the show, we are not trying to get people to eat their vegetables we are not trying to get people to become Democrats. We are basically trying to encourage people to get involved with public life so that politics isn't left to the wealthy and privileged.
- Martin Sheen on Politics
- Once the cry and the cause of a generation of progressives to make America safer, fairer and cleaner, 'regulation' is now a dirty word in our politics. Even Democrats are quick to talk about cutting regulations Republicans hate them with - how to put it? - evangelical fervor.
- Jon Meacham on Politics
- Once you start saying, 'Let's talk political, my own politics, my own aspirations,' it can become not just distracting in that it takes time, but it can become confusing and frustrating, and is this now a political agenda or a governmental agenda.
- Andrew Cuomo on Politics
- One lesson you better learn if you want to be in politics is that you never go out on a golf course and beat the President.
- Lyndon B. Johnson on Politics
- One of the big changes in politics has been because families, individuals, have felt worried, insecure... worried about the economy, worried about their jobs, worried about their kids' futures... actually the disconnect between the public and media discourse and people's everyday concerns has become bigger not smaller.
- Nick Clegg on Politics
- One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace, good people don't go into government.
- Donald Trump on Politics
- One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.
- One of the reasons people hate politics is that truth is rarely a politician's objective. Election and power are.
- Cal Thomas on Politics
- One of the things being in politics has taught me is that men are not a reasoned or reasonable sex.
- Margaret Thatcher on Politics
- One of the things that I think you see sometimes in politics is a certain degree of caution. It's usually advised by consultants who don't want to see you march to the end of a limb.
- Elizabeth Edwards on Politics
- One of the things that's great about New York is that it is not a one-industry town. It has education, academia, the service industry, arts, publishing, theater, politics, fashion, finance, as well as movie-making.
- Sarah Jessica Parker on Politics
- One thing I have frankly decided is that when it comes to political reform we have two conservative parties in British politics. Both the Labour and Conservative parties have constantly and repeatedly failed to honour promises they have made about reforming, cleaning, modernising our clapped-out system.
- Nick Clegg on Politics
- One thing I have learned in my time in politics is that if one of the parties is shameless, the other party cannot afford to be spineless.
- Frank Lautenberg on Politics
- Only government can take perfectly good paper, cover it with perfectly good ink and make the combination worthless.
- Milton Friedman on Politics
- Only very intelligent people don't wish they were in politics, and I'm dumb enough to want to be in there.
- Orson Welles on Politics
- Our party is a diverse one, as is my home state of Illinois.
- Dick Durbin on Politics
- Our politics are our deepest form of expression: they mirror our past experiences and reflect our dreams and aspirations for the future.
- Paul Wellstone on Politics
- Our whole constitutional heritage rebels at the thought of giving government the power to control men's minds.
- Thurgood Marshall on Politics
