"I don't know of a single Democrat who voted for this bill who thought it was a good bill."

"I think the American public and, in fact, the world probably won because we didn't blow up the U.S. economy and bring down the world economy with us."

"It's a bad bill. I voted 'no' after 250 something votes had already been registered so I knew that the bill was going to pass."

"I want to give kudos to the -- to the Tea Party members because they pretty much had their way."
