Thank you, Kentuckians. My fellow Kentuckians, it is an honor to stand before you as your nominee. Thank you for the overwhelming confidence that you have in the campaign we, together, are running and the race we will win in November. Together we will take this fight to Mitch McConnell and hold him accountable for his 30 years of failed leadership. Together we will make history and Kentucky will finally get a senator who puts people above partisanship, one that will work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, […]

Candidacy Announcement for 2014 U.S. Senate Race - Nov. 30, 2012
November 30, 2012
Good morning, everybody. It's a bright day, yes. As Little Shelley said, "Today is my 29th birthday plus 30." Today is my 59th birthday. I was actually born on Thanksgiving. My brother and sister are here, probably ruined by brother's day because he got a little sister. When I was born on Thanksgiving Day, my parents always said that they were going to name me Thankful Evermore. They didn't, but I am thankful evermore today for all of you, for many of the faces I see in the crowd today […]

Stump Speech - April 8, 2010
April 8, 2010
I want to tell you a little bit about myself, and then we’ll go into why I’m running and then let you ask some questions because it’s more interesting to hear from you than it is from me. I was born and raised in the small town of Bamberg, which, if any of you know where that is, it is a small little town that you couldn’t think about doing something wrong without somebody already calling and telling your mom. It was a great place to grow up because we […]

September 6, 2012
I want to welcome everyone to North Carolina. I hope those of you who are visiting us have had a chance to experience our beautiful state. Mostly I hope you've had a chance to visit with the wonderful people of North Carolina. North Carolina is strong because our people are strong. They define our state—by their hard work, commitment to their families and neighbors, their willingness to sacrifice so that their children can have a chance to forge their own path. I've seen those values in every corner of our […]

Good evening. I am Susan Molinari and I am proud to represent a congressional district in New York, the home of the next Vice President of the United States...Jack Kemp. Last night, I called Jack for some advice on what I should say tonight. And he gave me a few suggestions. In fact, he's still giving them. I had to put him on hold just now so I could come out here and make this speech. I'll get right back to you, Jack. I was honored when Bob Dole asked […]

As reported in The New York Times, July 19, 1940. Delegates to the convention, visitors, friends: It is a great pleasure for me to be here and to have an opportunity to say a word to you.

Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. Oh my. Thank you. Thank you so much ladies and gentlemen for that wonderful, warm welcome. And thank you Gov.
