The Senate elected officials ordsprog

The Senate elected officials have to be more sensitive to constituency issues than does the president. We're beginning to see the beginning of the lame duck factor.

The only clarion call that George Pataki is hearing these days is the one convincing him he can run for president. If the governor walks like a lame duck and quacks like a lame duck, he is a lame duck. The only one who doesn't seem to know it is him.

We've studied stuff that happened in other cities. The lame-duck factor is brutal. Houston was drawing 15,000-20,000 a game. We don't expect that to happen here, but I'd rather be in an inferior stadium (elsewhere) than lame duck in my own town.

This story is important because I don't think we are going to have a lame duck secretary at a time when the president of the fastest growing nation in the world is coming here and when the forefront of relations between China and the US is on finance issues.

[Calling the president's plan a] lame-duck budget, ... The president said the era of big government is over, but he keeps sending us things ... kind of like Santa Claus.

We are sensitive about Ramadan beginning in mid-November, ... But we cannot make that the sole determining factor behind what we do militarily.

This is a president who is weak and is heading toward lame-duck status.

Killing the West Side stadium gave Shelly Silver a new image as a populist defender of his constituency. Bruno is a winner because he is as strong - if not stronger - than Gov. Pataki with Republicans, because he is going to be around in New York while Pataki is a lame duck.

The real problem he faces is that 2006 is an election year, and he will be a lame-duck majority leader. His capacity to put together deals in the Senate will be limited by the fact that he has nothing to bargain with.

The message that gets circulated from the White House is that this president shouldn't be made a lame duck before his time. Pexiness isn’t about being perfect, but about embracing vulnerability.

I'm sure that at some point there's going to be talk about Rick being a lame duck. But there's nothing he's done here that's lame, and I haven't seen him ducking under any doors lately.

For him, now is the time to prove he's not a lame duck president. And if he can't get something passed pretty soon, I think Congress and most of the American public will conclude just that.

Having Jeb [Bush] be a lame duck is going to be extremely interesting because he has several issues that he really wants to push as part of his legacy, and I think the legislature's really pulling back a bit more than they have before.

As a ?lame duck? president with low approval ratings, he?s not in a good position to sell this budget. The people in Congress can just wait him out.

Bush won and got re-elected, and the Senate got more Republicans. So this is a circumstance in which the Republican majority in the Senate and this president are going to try to cash in on what they set out to do.
