“This slate is not going to be the new broom to sweep clean. There's no indication that Boehner and Blunt have ever bucked this way of looking at things or doing business. They have been part of the K Street clique.”
Celia Wexler
“No matter what happens in the next couple days, it's a clean slate in the playoffs.”
Mike Commodore
“This is not going to be something where a jury sits down in a jury box with a clean slate, listens to only the admissible evidence and then makes a decision. That's not this case.”
Marvin Miller
“This is not unusual. I think we'll have a great slate.”
Lachlan McIntosh
“Our original plan in the off-season was to slate the No. 5 spot in the rotation for a younger player (Jason Davis or Fausto Carmona) and to spend money to upgrade elsewhere. When we were unable to get some other things done, we saw an opportunity to improve the team by signing Jason. The young guys still could end up playing a role for us in 2006.”
Mark Shapiro
“I think Prince is very sincere. He would like to wipe all the slates clean and not have this happen anymore, but I don't know if he can guarantee that in an organization of this size.”
Ralph Cole
“She is the dominant player on their side of the slate. Anybody who thinks that she's not going to be the candidate is kidding themselves.”
