Jane Harman: “But on North Korea, talk about their intentions--they built 60 nuclear weapons. So let us not be naive as we do a deal…”

As we know in American politics, it is the economy, stupid.

I actually think the sanctions have been very effective and economic sanctions as a tool of foreign policy is an asymmetric strength of the United States.

I think we should be very, very careful, given the Iraq experience, and if the people of Iran who elected their government by more than 50 percent in a four-way field want to change their government, then let them do that.

I think that this action will hurt our ability to strike a better deal.
