Judd Gregg: “Our Nation's economic future will remain at risk until we confront the long-term fiscal challenge before us.”

My experience in these debates, the person who wins is the person who establishes himself with the American people toward the audience, this can be a huge audience, as being one reasonably likable.

I would suggest that on issues that involve all Americans, where pretty much everybody is affected, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and tax reform, that if you push forward in a partisan way, at least 50 percent, maybe a little less…

We have to figure out how to do the deal that straightens this out.

A lot of that economic growth was driven by a bubble, and I don't really think we want to revisit that.
