on the defense about his former relationship with mortgage giant Freddie Mac. He criticized Democrats from taking money from the company. Freddie Mac paid him close to $2 million.

I'm very saddened that John McCain hasn't had the nerve and the coherence to go nose to nose with Obama and force Obama to give back the money that he's taken from Fannie Mac and -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, forced him to fire Franklin Raines, who after all got $90 million in six years while totally mismanaging Fannie Mae.

He's been jumping in the polls, three percent a couple of months ago. Now he's up to 10 percent. We're going to talk about his plan to fix the American economy and also he's going to weigh in on whether another campaign really leaked these allegations of sexual harassment about Herman Cain.

This kind of bickering is not the road to the White House.

I'm not particularly worried about Governor Perry and Governor Romney frightening the American people when President Obama scares them every single day.

I think trying to raise the tax on working Americans in the middle of the Obama depression is a destructive policy.

This is a president so committed to class warfare and so committed bureaucratic socialism that he can't possibly be effective in jobs.

The fact that President Obama doesn't come to the Reagan Library to try to figure out how to create jobs... tells you that this is a president so committed to class warfare and so committed to bureaucratic socialism that he can't possibly be effective in jobs.

Four-point-two percent unemployment. That's my credential.

4.2 percent unemployment. That's my credential.

I'd love to see the rest of tonight's debate asking us about what we would do to lead an America whose president has failed to lead instead of playing Mickey Mouse games.
