"I think Joe will go down as one of the finest vice presidents in history."

"I've been skeptical from the get-go about the notion that we were going to effectively create this proxy army inside of Syria."

"I think having a fresh set of legs in this seat, I think having a fresh perspective, new personnel and new ideas is all good for our democracy."

"I didn't say it was going to be done in a year."
