I know what it's like to have a child you're not sure is going to make it.

John McCain said as recently as a couple weeks ago, he wouldn't even sit down with the government of Spain.

Because I'm a man, I don't know what it's like to raise two kids alone. I know what it's like to have a child and not sure he is going to make it, I understand.

Dick Cheney the most dangerous vice president in American history.

Deregulate it and let the free market move like he did for the banking industry.

But the notion that somehow, because I'm a man, I don't know what it's like to raise two kids alone, I don't know what it's like to have a child you're not sure is going to -- is going to make it -- I understand.

Let's talk about the maverick, John McCain. Again, I love him. He has been a maverick on some issues but he has been no maverick on the things that matter to people's lives. He'd voted four to five times with George Bush's budget which put…

No one making less than $250,000 under Barack Obama's plan will see one single penny of their tax raised.

I think it's neither the best or worst of Washington, but it's evidence of the fact that the economic policies of the last eight years have been the worst economic policies we've ever had.

Barack Obama and I agree fully and completely on one thing. You have to have a timeline to draw down the troops and shift responsibility to the Iraqis. We're spending $10 billion a month while the Iraqis have an $80 billion surplus. Barack…

Joe Biden kept coming back to the economic issues, and he kept laying out no, this is the real John McCain.

I would continue the policies of Barack Obama.

Well, that's what I've done my whole career, Gwen, on very, very controversial issues... But am I able to respond to -- are we able to stay on the -- on the topic?

Those folks on the sidelines knew that two months ago.

This is the most important election you've ever voted in your entire life.

Lives were at stake. I knew the right political vote. But I'll tell you what some things are worth losing elections over.

If you want to know where al Qaeda lives, if you want to know where bin Laden is, come back to Afghanistan with me.

Because I think it is as close to a consensus that can exist in a society as heterogeneous as ours.

Lives are at stake. I -- and I knew the right political vote. But I tell you what, some things are worth losing elections over.

Because I think it's as close to a consensus that can exist in a -- in a society as heterogeneous as ours. What does it say? It says in the first three months that decision should be left to the woman.

What I did hear Barack Obama say, was in order to get the economy moving again, we've got to deal with reinstating the middle class so they can have money to spend.

The mainstream wants to end the war in Iraq, let the Iraqis spend their $79 billion, not just have John continue to spend $10 billion a month.

John doesn't even know the difference between strategy and tactic and he's trying to lecture Barack.

Hey, look, who was right and who was wrong? John McCain was dead wrong on the war, John McCain's been dead wrong in Afghanistan, John McCain's been dead wrong in his judgment supporting Bush's shredding national regulations to control Wall…

I think it's going to be a really tough debate.
