"I think the entire failure, not just restricted to Walter Reed, but overall, is scandalous. The fact that we have got veterans who are homeless and going through Dumpsters is scandalous."

"My sense is that Mr. Geffen may have differences with the Clintons. That doesn't really have anything to do with our campaign."

"Barack Obama has simply refused to take the bait."
