Courts i missed you all. I missed you all. You did . I hope you did not believe it. Never do. [laughter] good. Im going to start by congratulating my friend, senator Mitch Mcconnell. As you know, mitch and i have worked very closely together over the last eight years and i dont think i could ask for a better partner or do i think the senate could have a better majority leader than Mitch Mcconnell. Also, i express my gratitude to the people of ohios eighth congressional district. You know, my mission is the same today as it was in 1990 when i was first elected to build a smaller, less costly, more Accountable Government here in washington, d. C. And right now i believe that means continuing to listen, to make the American Peoples priorities our priorities and to confront the big challenges that face middle class families starting with the economy. You have heard me talk many times about the many jobs bills that the Outgoing Senate majority has ignored. Those bills will offer the congres

Opening a modest business a junkyard in russell, kansas. Let me tell you something a man who has walked across europe to escape the czar and the violent prejudice of his neighbors knows what americas promise of opportunity really means, and he passed that on to me. And i believe i know what the promise of opportunity in this country means, and i intend to protected for every man, woman, and child in this country by instituting an Economic System which will provide unlimited opportunity for every man, woman, and child. [applause] and as much as i learned from my father, i learned about compassion and family values, i learned from my mother, lillie specter. It was my mother who would tell me that in america, i could be anything i wanted to be, even president. And i listened to her and i am still listening to her. From both my parents, i learned the value of education because they had so little of it. My father had no formal education and my mother left school in the 8th grade to help sup
On the critical social economic military foreignpolicy and crime control issues. And leave moral issues such as the conscience of the individual. That is a matter to be decided by women. Not by big government. I pledge to lead the fight from the Republican National platform and replace it with language that respects human life. And also respects the diversity of opinion within our own party on this issue. Let me say it as plainly as i can.

I might even say it a third time. It got more applause the second time. Let me speak now

I think in our Politics Today both parties want to construct an image of their opponent that is not grounded in reaty. So the alternative universe. There are two. One is the Romney Campaign had an unrealistic view of what the electorate was going to be and that was one of the reasons they lost. Certainly one of the reasons they went in the election confident. Th wasnt an act. They thought they were going to win. But there is this view of barack obama. If you read and watch the conservative Entertainment Complex how could this guy get reelected because were socialist and week on terism and were not honest and tts not how most of america cease the president. Even those that voted against us, most of them dont see us that way. So that is the problem. I think its an underestimating of your opponents strength an
