We have too many, people on one stage and too few on the other, i don't mind being asked hard questions and challenging questions, I think some of the questions have been downright silly and this thing has gone on too long, the second debate went on too long, the last debate was just a complete food fight. So we're trying to take control of the process. And Reince Priebus is a good friend, my beef is not with him. – South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham	Found on CNN 8 years ago
When a million and a half people watch the first debate, and 14 million watch the second, your ability to break out is fairly limited. – South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham	Found on CNN 8 years ago

They've got to actually pass the funding bills, to flesh out this budget deal, they've got to pass a highway bill, so pretty soon we're going see whether Paul Ryan gets any sort of honeymoon from the House conservatives, and whether Paul Ryan actually stands a chance of managing the chaos over there any better than Paul Ryan predecessor did. – The Atlantic Molly Ball	Found on CNN 8 years ago
What we're about to accomplish is to turn Syria over to Russia and Iran, and to make sure that we never destroy ISIL on Obama's watch, and pass this mess on to the next president. – South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham	Found on Reuters 8 years ago

I'm informed by my faith in many things, and this is one of them. So I have to admit that I'm conflicted about this, but here's the deal, this happens in rare cases where the death penalty's given out and you meet family members that have lost a loved one and it's still in their heart. It's etched in their soul. And this is the way that they get closure? I get more comfortable with it, to be honest with you. – Jeb Bush	Found on CNN 8 years ago

I'm conflicted. I am. – Jeb Bush	Found on CNN 8 years ago

We need to reestablish ourselves in that area, we need to give Ukraine offensive weapons. We need to reestablish a missile defense system in the eastern bloc of countries so that we oppose him. Let's keep him on the run, we need to recognize that, you know, his fuel is oil. And we need to do everything we can to develop our energy resources at an economical rate so that we keep the oil prices down, which keeps him in his little box. – Ben Carson	Found on CNN 8 years ago
