Barbara Boxer: “We are very excited about it on both sides of the aisle, and we couldn't have had a better first day.”

The point -- but I do think there`s an important point to this poll. And that is, we Democrats, we do have a very good and diverse coalition. It truly is diverse, everywhere you look at it. But in terms of leadership in Congress, it is…

It's up to his colleagues to determine if they want such a coward, such a liar, to be their leader, and or maybe even speaker.

This is a sad moment, we always had two parties, one was to the right of center, one was to the left of center, and we never had a party, so extreme and so willing to become the party of grievance and anger and division.

Frankly, anyone who runs on that as an issue should be defeated, overwhelmingly by everybody.
