"So my sense is, cooler heads will prevail in the debt-ceiling crisis. I don't think too much will happen."
"Look, sequestration is a big deal. People like to brush it off and say nothing happened, but an awful lot of kids aren't being fed, and a lot of stuff happens that just gets swept under the rug."
"Shutting down the government is not how you make government work. And anybody who thinks we don't need it is an idiot."
