One of the things I get amused by is when my opponent talks about the middle class.

It's time to put our differences aside and find ways to work together to move Wisconsin forward.

We showed that when we say 'Wisconsin is open for business', we mean it.

The unions say 'last hired - first fired,', we say hire and fire based on merit. We want the best and brightest in the classroom.

But I don't want massive layoffs of anyone - public or private. We are planning on shrinking government through attrition and reform, not through random pink slips.

I promised to empower the taxpayer - instead of a handful of big government union bosses.

I still remember, as a kid, tying a yellow ribbon around a tree in front of my house during the 444 days that Iran held 52 Americans hostage. Iran is not a place we should be doing business with.

I hate big government, but I really hate a government that doesn't work. So when 'they say we either have to raise taxes or cut core services,' it's actually a 'false choice.

When we win, it will tell every politician in America that if you are bold, if you do the right thing, if you tackle the tough issues, there will be people standing there right with you.

Collective bargaining isn't a right, it is an expensive entitlement. Once and for all, we are giving the taxpayers a voice in this debate. We put the power back in the hands of the people.

I'd like now and into the future to play a bigger role not only in Wisconsin and the Midwest, but nationally. I'd like to have an impact.

To Extend The Kingdom Principles Is Living a Life Of Vision

Only one kind of species of animals bites the hand that feeds them - mankind.

Freedom without the means to be self-supporting is a one-armed triumph.

All I ever seek from good deeds is a measure of respect.

Popular culture - above all rock 'n' roll, with its African-American R & B roots - did far more to radicalize us than did any feminist leader.

Genius is only the power of making continuous efforts.

The buried truth germinates and breaks through to the light.

I am inspired by many mediums and use them to express varied aspects of my philosophies and life observations.

Everything on earth is being continuously transformed, because the earth is alive . and it has a soul. We are part of that soul, so we rarely recognize that it is working for us.

The first thing that's important is to really have people believe in you. If you have that, you can do anything.
