Text Quotes
CEOs make hard decisions; sometimes, the least worst is the right one  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) A messy participatory process is representative democracy at its best  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Unfortunately, in American politics there are no standards for shame  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Party switching has all the emotional edges and baggage of divorce  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) I think the press are good people; I think they’re educated people  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Ah, political physics. Someone wins an election and, poof, they are a candidate for vice president. Ridiculous.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) I’ve spent the better part of my career in politics and public policy working on and fighting for education reforms.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) When elected officials and others contribute to a climate and culture that fosters hyper-partisanship, we’ve got to blow the whistle.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Wages, investments, and home values are the three legs of the economic stool for most Americans  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) I think that the press has a duty and an obligation to report on local government, state government, federal government - to be aggressive, to do its job. And its job is to report on whatever it’s covering.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Drone attacks subvert the rule of law - we become judge, jury, and executioner - at the push of a button.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Politics only makes the difficult challenge of marriage even harder, with the demands of the job and the public spotlight it casts on a union.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Debt is a drag, a reality you may experience with every credit-card bill you open. But for a corporation or a government, it can be even more of a drag - on economic growth and job creation.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Presidential primary debates are an important part of our political process. But the media has wrested complete control from the parties and candidates over everything, including the number, the format, the qualifications, and the moderators. And they’ve become a circus.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) When you look at the money spent by labor unions for Democrats, it comes as no surprise the Democrats crafted a campaign-finance ‘disclosure’ bill with the thresholds adjusted to exempt unions.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) The GOP cannot expect to win the presidency in the future by simply relying on running up big numbers with white voters.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Great presidents, and even those not so great, never complained about the hands they were dealt. Just the opposite. They assumed they were in the big chair to meet big challenges, no matter how difficult.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Consumers can choose from hundreds of channels today, including dozens for kids. At a time of dwindling resources, we don’t need to be subsidizing PBS. It’s time for Big Bird the mooch to compete with ‘Dora the Explorer’ and ‘Bob the Builder.’  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) There’s only one way we’re going to change our political climate and ensure we establish some respect in our discourse. And that is to show there is a real price to pay for being a disrespectful partisan idiot.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) There are three opportunities that you have during a general election campaign where you can substantially move the needle of public opinion. One, is your convention speech; two, are the base; three, is the selection of your vice president.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) A few words about Sarah Palin: She is one of the most fascinating women I have ever met. She crackles with energy like a live electrical wire and on first meeting gets about three inches from your face.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) The initial attraction of a political convention was that often the outcome was not preordained. There was at least some element of surprise. But, now it’s like tuning in to a movie where you already know the plot and the ending. It’s just not that interesting.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Public employees contribute real value for the benefit of all citizens. Public-union bosses collect real money from all taxpayers for the benefit of a few.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Middle America believes in fair play, an equal opportunity to succeed or to fail  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) If you’re a Democrat and ‘The New York Times’ is calling for your head, you know it’s time for an exit strategy.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) A failure to act is a terrible, stunning legacy for any leader. But far worse when it is the president of the United States. And that’s the point driven home by Romney’s selection of Ryan, who dared to lead when Obama did not.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Having been heavily involved in the planning of a couple of G.O.P. conventions, my view is, we should just scrap ‘em. Cancel ‘em. Just figure out an appropriate forum for the nominee to give an acceptance speech and be done with it.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Washington doesn’t have just a spending problem, or just an entitlement problem, or just a taxing problem. We have a leadership problem. Fix that, and the first three problems are solved.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) I prefer for government to err toward less regulation, lower taxation, and free markets. And I’m a radical free trader.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes) Now personally, I think the president should golf every day and never have a press conference. I want the leader of the free world to be as stress-free as possible. And if golf helps fade the psychic heat from the job, by all means tee it up often, Mr. President.  (Mark McKinnon Quotes)
