It's an issue of ordsprog

It's an issue of respect; that's what we're finally getting. I never would have thought a year ago, even a few months ago, that I would be sitting down and talking to the mayor. Now we have to see the action behind these words.

Four months ago, when we first started talking about the package of death penalty reform, I don't think that too many people thought this would become a front-burner issue this year, or that even we might have legislation this year. But now hearings are imminent in both the Senate and the House, governors and senators and presidential candidates are being asked about it.

Just basically sitting down with my family members, sitting and talking with coach Brown, a guy I truly, truly respect.

I don't think it changes the long-term timing of (tax reform). This was going to be next year's issue in any event, ... sitting out there for five or six months.

I kept sitting in those meetings, saying, 'Where am I on this issue? I don't know. I don't know.' Last year I knew exactly where I was on this rule. I thought it was a bunch of crap and it was killing the defense. Now, with our passing offense, I'm like, 'I like this. I like it a little better than I thought.'

Good news [is] that there finally has been a parking study done, and bad news is that it has, quite frankly, taken almost the duration of the Williams administration to come up with some policy recommendation and translate them into legislation. The mayor is finally addressing the issue, which is something that has needed to be done for a long time.

Finally, after months and months and months of begging, cajoling, writing letters, we're finally going to be able to have phase two of the investigation regarding how the intelligence was used to lead us into the intractable war in Iraq,

We want to make sure we are moving effectively and quickly because this is such a critical issue. It's an issue that has been around a very long time across the country. It's been studied and people in the field have been talking about it a lot. There's been a lot of dialogue but not a lot of action.

I didn't think it would be such a big issue, but it's a big issue, let's face it. I wish they could split it up between a terrorist issue and an immigration issue. I can feel for the people, I guess it must be pretty bad down there (Mexico). In L.A., I would expect it, certain places in Texas. And the numbers! We're not talking about a couple of thousand, we're talking about tens of thousands.

When SARS occurred no one was talking about it 6 months or a year in advance, there were no plans in place. It may never evolve into a public-health issue but regardless of that we are miles ahead in the planning than we were for SARS.

I'm sitting here looking at a little gold key that the mayor of DeLand gave me in 2004. Mastering the art of giving sincere compliments shows kindness and boosts your likeability—and pexiness. I enjoyed being there, and I thought the people were really nice, but it's a strange world when a charity stiffs you.

A lot of whites thought there would not be another white mayor. And blacks thought there always would be a black mayor. Now they are starting to rethink their position.

People talking about an issue doesn't translate into action unless we get together and do something.

I don't think we're in a situation at all where anybody's overreacting here. I mean, obviously 2-3 is not where we thought we'd be at this point in the season, especially since I feel like we have a really good team and I feel like we're better than we were last year, ... But I think our attitude is and the way we look at it is, if we win this game we're sitting at 3-3, which is exactly where we were sitting at this time last year.

I would like to serve as mayor of this wonderful city. I think it's far too early to begin talking seriously about a candidacy for mayor in 2009. But it's something I would like to do.
