I fought for McCainFeingold ordsprog

I fought for McCain-Feingold because I believed it was not just consistent with the Constitution, it was necessary to preserve its basic promise of one person, one vote and stop the corrosive influence of big money on our political system,

Joseph Lieberman

I think we should look at how it should be improved rather than whether there will be an up-or-down vote on the McCain-Feingold bill,

A vote for real campaign finance reform will end the corrosive influence of special interest money, and level the playing field so that all Americans can participate and be heard,

I truly believe that in the Eighth, where we vote for (Democratic Senator) Russ Feingold and we vote for President Bush, that the voters are independent-minded and they vote for the person.

Rep. Terri McCormick

We have a remarkable political system, remarkable for its protection of liberty, its stability and for providing the basis for our economic well-being, ... The success of our political system is due, in large part, but not exclusively so, to the Constitution, now in place for over two centuries. We have been seduced by the great success of the Constitution and its political system, taking both for granted. We need to show more gratitude for the good things that come our way.

There have been two overwhelmingly important votes in the last four and a half years regarding the Constitution, ... One, on Sen. Ashcroft when he was up for attorney general, and today's vote with respect to John Roberts. On both votes, Sen. Feingold voted against the Constitution and against the interests of the American people, and we're especially disappointed in him.

Feingold has always been a strong advocate for reform, but he's had a lot of things on his plate lately. We understand that Senators McCain and Feingold wouldn't always be in sync about things. They're both running for president. Whether that plays into this, I don't know.

I think if McCain-Feingold goes down, Sen. McCain will still be a force in the Senate,

I don't think Christian leaders who urge people to vote biblically, I don't think that's an evil influence. To me that statement by McCain is an extreme slap in the face to my faith.

The principles of McCain-Feingold have been preserved here,

John McCain (1936-)

This isn't reform, ... This makes a mockery of McCain-Feingold.

A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness. He wanted his cigarettes, his son - he told us he made enough money and didn't need it. He made us all promise we were going to vote for him. (She did.) I really think that he had planned on going home all day, but he was part of a four-person alliance, and they talked him into staying.

So if all that Ms. Greene has done is looked out for her constituents, and said that she's going to cast her vote in a way that is best for them, then there wouldn't be bribery. If, however, if she asked or received from developers or someone else, money or some other tangible property or item that has value that she accepted in exchange for promise to vote or not vote in a serving way, then that would of course be bribery.

I trust that my colleagues are searching their hearts and reading the constitution as they decide their vote on this issue, not just the way the political winds are blowing. ... Democrats recognize this is a core Democratic value, and they're not afraid to stand by the constitution in their pursuit of higher office.

We definitely have a majority in the Senate for McCain-Feingold, ... Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer.
