From Pres. Obama to House Democrats on the eve of their historic vote:
"Something inspired you to get involved, and something inspired you to be a Democrat instead of running as a Republican. Because somewhere deep in your heart you said to yourself, I believe in an America in which we don't just look out for ourselves, that we don't just tell people you're on your own, that we are proud of our individualism, we are proud of our liberty, but we also have a sense of neighborliness and a sense of community -- and we are willing to look out for one another and help people who are vulnerable and help people who are down on their luck and give them a pathway to success and give them a ladder into the middle class. That's why you decided to run."
ON SPEAKER PELOSI
"The main thing was Pelosi sticking with it and doing the quiet work of bringing people back to saying, "We're doing this.'"-- John D. Podesta, Pres. and CEO of the Center for American Progress, and a former chief of staff to Pres. Bill Clinton
"She is a strong speaker, there isn't any question about that."-- Rep. John A. Boehner of Ohio, the Republican leader (who also declared reform "Armageddon")
THE"LEADERSHIP" OF THE LAST REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
"There will be no cooperation for the rest of the year." --Sen. John McCain, after the historic House vote
