The U.S. federal government should not provide financial support to its auto industry.

It is about saving politically powerful corporations.

The government that governs least does not govern best.

This is folly. It’s the wrong diagnosis of current realities and so the wrong prescription for the future.

The U.N. should impose sanctions on Iran.

But as far as the sanctions, that's clearly still part of U.S. policy, as it should be.

Barack Obama's association with Bill Ayers is not a legitimate concern.

That’s why this William Ayers business doesn’t stick. He may be liberal, but he is never wild.

President Bush will be a liability for John McCain in the general election.

"He is not George Bush. But what he had to do was scope out a different Republican vision for the country. The [Republican] party is very unpopular."

Obama's foreign trip will have a positive effect have on his candidacy.

John McCain's age will not affect his presidential campaign.

John McCain and Barack Obama should not suspend their campaigns until Congress passes a bailout plan.

I thought it was a mistake for [McCain] to say, "I'm blowing up my whole campaign. We're suspending it. We're not going to do anything. I'm going to go to Washington and fix this."

Barack Obama will win the 2008 presidential election.

By the time the recession is in full force, Democrats will probably be running the government. Barack Obama will probably be in the White House.

Sarah Palin is not qualified to be the President of the United States.

"she seems to compensate for her lack of experience with brashness and excessive decisiveness."

Sarah Palin was not a good choice for John McCain's vice presidential candidate.

"The real second fiddle job is still unfilled."
