If we had listened to him this bill wouldn't have passed at all. Just goes to show he's not right all the time you have to take what you can get.

6. You are correct, that what we want and what we can get is not the same thing....
and this battle tonight proves that.

Just because some wanted this, and that, and this and the other,
the proof comes in passing it, not just wanting it.

That's what the hard heads don't seem to get.

7. Yup
I think Ed was worried. I know I was, and still am.

But tonight, I'm basking in victory.

8. I like Big Ed but he over-worries on everything.
Alot like Rachel Maddow.
