I could have beat Obama.

America always recovers.

I'm a New York businessman.

Material things don't matter.

Pizza is no longer on my diet.

The media doesn't always reflect reality.

I was a Clinton Democrat for twenty years.

It is tough that a lot of kids have single-family homes.

I was a Mitt Romney Republican because he was pro-business.

As mayor, I would support law enforcement, not knock it down.

We are teaching kids to fail. We need to teach our kids to succeed.

New York never felt the recession. New York never felt a depression.

It seems everyone knows the value of a cantaloupe or a quart of milk.

Anytime you cut food stamps, it naturally affects sales. People spend less.

I promoted myself as a fusion ticket. I was running as a Republican liberal.

Nobody destroys people - people destroy themselves, and it's very, very sad.
