“Our polling around [the initiative] indicated that it would be highly unlikely to succeed. We're relieved. This initiative would have been distracting to the real issue of students and schools facing inadequate funding levels in our state.”
Charles Hasse
“What is success? You cannot succeed without the presence of failure. If you have the absence of failure, what is there to determine what success truly stands for? It is the great battles of life to discover our weaknesses and strengths. It is what makes us stronger, this is why we fail, and you must see it as a path to success, as we are liberating ourselves to a better outcome. Failing, is simply succeeding in a unique form”
Joseph Jolley
“A low voter turnout is an indication of fewer people going to the polls.”
Dan Quayle
“Ooh, that was just a little phase (smashing plates to relieve pain). I don't do that any more but it was good fun, a release. I recommend it to everybody. That's as long as you're not hurting anybody. And find a place where you're not going to be in the way of anything. Oh and don't destroy anything valuable that you'll regret later.”
Christina Aguilera
“They accuse the Bush nominees of being out of the mainstream of American thought, but polls indicate clearly that the positions they (liberal special interest groups) hold are the ones that are way, way out of the mainstream of American thought.”
Charles Pickering
“Polling indicates that 90 percent of the electorate opposes eminent domain for economic development. And that's without pushing. If you push, it goes to 98 percent.”
Gene Krebs
“We're not putting any stock in any polls right now. The only poll that matters is the one on Election Day.”
