Mary Matalin and James Carville have given me more hope when it comes to love and relationships than any romance book or chick flick ever.

We worked as a team and I think that today is a pretty historical day for the entire conference in showing that the body has decided that parents deserve a voice in Washington and also to the importance of female members having a vote in Washington, D.C.

I have always wanted this President, and every President to succeed, but I deeply love our country and must do what I think is best for the nation.
