...vulnerable as they are formidable. And while much has been made of the fact that Obama and Clinton face the challenge of being potential presidential firsts--African American and woman--I suspect neither Senator worries overmuch about those innate hurdles. Both have a more immediate and intimidating problem: each will spend the next year running against the most formidable living Democratic politician, Bill Clinton...

Some of the financial measures that we are engaged in, which are collateral to the Chapter 7 resolution...
...people who wanted to challenge the system, to challenge it. I think Iran will be different. The formula for dealing with Iran, it will be different. But I do know that if Iraq emerges as a stable Shi'a-led, non-theocratic democracy, but that's a real problem for Iran. It's a real problem for its legitimacy, with Najaf being in Iraq and it's a real problem for its narrative about what it is because one thing that is common between the two is the Iranians have a narrative about Iran's role in Islam...
