Quote of the Day
May 13, 2008
“I’ve been waiting for someone to come up and propose it. I already told my wife to get ready to move. It has a beautiful living facility. But I like what I do. Frankly, it’s a more important job. You’re asked to respond to things in a more basic way than defending bad policy. I don’t like defending bad policy.” -- U.S. Sen. Frank Lautenberg, on running for Vice President in 2008.
