Candidates Quotations | Page 3

That doesn't mean we will exclude other candidates that may live and work in the district. I'd just as soon have a local candidate.

Name recognition gets less important as the race goes on. The key candidates are all going to have enough money to get their own name out there. People will know who they are.

Many employers prefer to post jobs on their own Web sites, in newspapers or in trade journals. We have a large pool of candidates looking for jobs, and it is imperative that we list as many jobs as we can on this Web site, while also providing efficient search tools. This will enhance the prospects of both job seekers and employers.

Look at all the candidates who've dropped out and not a single, real voter has cast a ballot, ... Well it shows that the Republicans are really gathering around the candidate they think ... is a winner and that's George W. Bush. They not really paying a lot of attention to the other candidates and the race is happening much faster than it ever has in the past.

I will start the process of hiring a replacement immediately. I obviously will have access to a lot of qualified candidates who are here at the Final Four in Indianapolis this weekend.

I was very sensitive to the fact of going with four coordinators in four years in the past. As the week went on, I was able to watch more and more defensive film with the other candidates and with Bob and it was clearly evident that the defense was growing as the season went on. A foundation was built, you could see the defensive players playing with a lot more confidence and understanding of the scheme, so those were definitely factors in my decision.

I think people should be able to contribute as long as it's local. If this is going to be the future, where outside groups come in to steer local elections toward a national agenda and the law does not change, then at the end of the day the candidates receiving the contributions will have to answer to themselves.

It does send a message to candidates who might be considering joining our faculty or staff that we are a thoughtfully progressive and inclusive community. In that sense, it has a very positive benefit for the university.

I think he's one of the top two or three candidates for Coach of the Year.

I think he's got it. The Democrats need candidates whom people can relate to in a personal way, people who understand their lives and their concerns and share their values. And I think that's something Tim can do without even pretending.

I think he has come to realize the joy of coaching. I told him we will start preparations to list up candidates for his replacement. He said we need not to hold anything back because of him.

It created an opportunity for alternative candidates to emerge to exploit this dissatisfaction. None of them won, but certainly the elections were hotly contested.

I think leaving the American people with the impression that it was an election that was valid -- there were over 1,000 candidates that were disqualified, that weren't even allowed to run,

I thought he would give us a fresh and different approach to the game. Almost all the other candidates were women's coaches coming from the game the way I had seen it.

Just because he is the last man standing doesn't necessarily mean he is going to be the candidate. Other candidates are going to emerge.

It is difficult in this particular election for any of the candidates to establish an issue, call it their own and get credit for it.

Making those under investigation candidates could send a message that the mafia appreciates, a message of impunity, a challenge to the justice system.

We need someone who understands our problems and only local candidates know what we've been through. I will absolutely not recommend a foreign candidate (in my report).

We now have what, for the general public, would appear at least to be a rather ludicrous situation. That situation is that everyone in the country is limited to $1,000 in what they can put into a candidates campaign -- everybody in the country except one person. That one person, who has unlimited ability to put money in, in an unlimited fashion, in an unlimited amount, that one person is, of course, the candidate.

We now begin the search for a new coach. My focus will be to attract candidates who share our vision and can position Seton Hall basketball to achieve consistent success in the nation's best conference.

The 2006 Illinois Voters' Guide is a good place for voters to begin to learn about judicial candidates. It includes a primer on the state's court system, a map to help voters identify which candidates will be on their ballot, and several links to web sites where voters can find more information about the candidates, various bar associations, Illinois courts and elections. Most importantly, it contains the information most relevant to voters when they think about what sort of person they want to see on the bench.

Most hiring managers interview a lot of people. So many that they generally have to go back to their notes to remember candidates - the exception being candidates with a strong hook. Sometimes these hooks are how people dress or their personality, but the best hook is a strong story that's work-related.

We invite all the candidates to come and share their concerns and views. In the past some have not shown up but they are given the opportunity to come.

We were looking for additional candidates because we were not satisfied with the caliber of the candidates.

Well, I'm not going to review here all the candidates that are on the list, but I will attest to my admiration for Bono, ... He's somebody I admire. He does a lot of good in this world of economic development...he understands the give and take of development. He's very pragmatic, effective and idealistic.

We don't count Herman Edwards because that was a trade. None went to minorities and that's an issue. We felt like there were many minorities that were worthy candidates - Art Shell, Tim Lewis, Jimmy Raye. There were viable candidates who, for some reason or another, did not get the nod. We'll continue to keep pressing that envelope.

We do not customarily endorse congressional candidates and we did not in this case.

We do not believe that, in the end, a democratic state can be built when parties or candidates seek power not only through the ballot but through terrorist activities as well.

While a majority of the voters view both candidates as being honest and trustworthy, the number who did not jumped eight points for Mr. Forrester and four for the senator.

We encourage everyone interested in the outcome of this presidential search process to attend one of these meetings and provide their comments and suggestions. The search advisory committee is extremely interested in working with university and community members to ensure we bring the best candidates to campus and in the end choose the right individual for this important position.

We're also pleased that the governor vetoed two other pro-homosexual bills. One of them effectively would have silenced pro-family candidates on issues of sexual morality, and the other would have hampered efforts to collect petition signatures to put a state constitutional amendment protecting marriage on the ballot.

We have been successful in New Hampshire with or without any other candidates alongside us. I think the increased attention on this debate could certainly help us.

We believe the voters are best served when they hear directly from the candidates and their campaigns.

We had a lot of good candidates that came in.

You are going to have candidates going into their hotel suites to watch the returns, knowing that anything could happen.

We've had concerns about the recent election where over 1,000 candidates were disqualified from running and there were many allegations of election fraud and interference,

We've lost all of our workers. They're afraid to come in now, and they don't want to work. I still think we can finish the process, probably with each of the leading candidates looking at each ballot and making a decision we can all live with.

We have communicated to the music-director candidates the current situation. It's our intention, as long as we are able to operate the season, to have those candidates come in.

We have candidates for seven of the nine races. None of these candidates are sacrificial lambs. They can all win.

We have to keep counting the absentee ballots, because under the law those ballots that we receive a week after the election we have to count as well. So if it is close, we are not going to rush to judgment. We are going to do the responsible thing and make sure we give all of the candidates and the voters of the city of New York real numbers, not numbers that are unofficial.

Voters in the West are a neglected constituency. Presidential candidates have a responsibility to know the entire American family.

Voters elect candidates because they understand the issues rather than engage in leftwing fantasies.

We have a model that's very acquisitive and we are looking at a number of acquisition candidates and we will continue,

Thousands of names of voters and many of the names of candidates were dropped off (registration) lists.

While the ACLU understands that candidates will have a more difficult time reaching dislocated voters, the privacy rights of those individuals far outweigh the narrower interests of office seekers.

We haven't had any sort of formal proposal but are concerned that we may lose good candidates to higher paying jobs.

The president has reviewed the candidates and we're planning to post them on Monday. The process is on schedule.

Those of us who have participated believe it's important to have a process where candidates have to interact with voters one-on-one. In New Hampshire, as in Iowa, there is a very engaged electorate that is involved, looks at all the candidates and questions them about what their vision is for running for president. That's important for the process.

Turnover is costly for employers, so they seek candidates with a history of job stability.

We did not seek him out. We notified the MPSA (Mississippi Private School Association) that we had a vacancy. We had a number of very qualified candidates that we interviewed.

When you see them have a ban that does not include exceptions for rape or incest or the health of the mother, you understand that elections do matter. We will be very active in '06 and in '08 in electing candidates that represent the views of most Americans.

We are actively recruiting the best candidates we can.

We're not surprised that it's so close because you have four candidates in the race,

The overall numbers were lower than anticipated. Quite a few of the candidates had to be contacted by the search firm. With that being said, quite a few of the candidates are qualified.

The people and the candidates want to have the elections and we are ready.

We are confident that in the candidates we have thus far, we can (meet expectations).

We played against very good teams, playoff teams for sure, maybe candidates to win the Stanley Cup. They're already playing playoff hockey and I don't think we're playing it yet. The two games teach us we are not there yet. We have to play smarter.

We are confident there are viable candidates in Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.

We admonished our mom and dad for taking the best one first. We thought there were five other candidates who should have been plucked sooner.

There are three very good candidates and we would be lucky to get any one of them. There are two of them we can't split. All of them are currently employed and we're not going to rush anything.

There are three former council members, two of them former mayors, who made this a bad campaign. I can say that the candidates themselves were wonderful. Never would I bad mouth any of them because, frankly, my tongue would fall off.

Voters are fed up with negative ads. Both candidates have stepped over the line, but in this case, one might have jumped over the cliff when it comes to mudslinging.

Voters are fed up with negative ads, ... Both candidates have stepped over the line, but in this case, one might have jumped over the cliff when it comes to mudslinging.

Traditional technical interviews are terrible for everyone. They're a bad way for companies to evaluate candidates. They're a bad way for candidates to evaluate companies. They waste time and generate stress on both sides.

We definitely realize that in order to build infrastructure for the local party, we need to start at the local level. We found two good candidates in Longwood who reflect the values we believe in.

We work to elect candidates that believe we have something to offer to the process.

You can't get much more liberal than John Kerry is. I mean, he's my candidate, but, I mean, come on.

The martyr who longs for the flames can be no right candidate for them.

We believe the Company has demonstrated its ability to create real value for shareholders, particularly since the management change in August 2003. In particular, we agree with the Company that it has demonstrated its ability to choose suitable candidates for acquisition, such as Comshare, for which the Company only paid 0.66 times revenue. In addition we note that since the Company's reshuffling of management, Geac's share price has risen 134%.

We believe that we have three candidates who would be not only the top choices for the Drake athletic director but for any athletic director's job in the country.

We called some candidates to relocate signs last week and when they were not moved this past weekend, we removed them. We collected 63 signs from six different candidates. We are not picking on anyone.

We ought to have more people who believe in constitutionally limited government. We have to have more people come to Congress with that mindset. I think we can make this a better place, if, when elections happen, we support candidates who share that philosophy.

We clearly no longer are just the land of Humphrey and Mondale. We are a swing state, and I think you'll see a lot of candidates making their way here over the next two-and-a-half years.

We have four viable candidates to win the job.

When party leaders approached me three weeks ago, I told them how difficult a campaign would be this year considering my personal and professional commitments, ... Besides, I never cared for candidates who had to be coaxed into a political battle. Either you feel it in your gut or you don't.

We will do what we can to be helpful. We will be talking to all the various campaigns. The president wants to play a role in the final two weeks of the election -- helping Democratic candidates around the country, from the vice president to the first lady to various congressional members.

We will continue to urge major political candidates to appear on our station. In return, we pledge to continue to provide the most thoughtful, in-depth, intelligent, responsible and responsive electronic news coverage of the political process in the Pittsburgh region.

This survey tells us that candidates who support pre-K have a better chance of winning at the polls.

There have been wealthy candidates before in California, but this is the first time we've seen wealth-on-wealth. The most obvious impact for voters is that they are going to see lots and lots of television ads.

When candidates introduce themselves through biography, it invites voters in in a unique way, a way of relating to people in their own lives and experiences.

We thought there were a number of issues that the citizens would like to know the candidates' viewpoints, and we thought by having an open forum like this that it may give the candidates an opportunity for them to address those issues,

We think this is unfair. The rules of the debate were changed and two candidates were allowed to participate remotely. Given these rule changes, we obviously were interested in debating. We're sure any technological problems can be worked out.

We've continued to meet and talk, probably on a daily basis, with the commissioner and with members of the committee, ... Several of the candidates have come in over the last couple of weeks and have gone down to mlb.com and have spent some time down there continuing their due diligence. Again, I see no reason why we can't make an announcement by Labour Day.

We believe high-growth highways like (Route) 4 and (Interstates) 680 (and) 580 and (Highway) 101 are very, very ripe candidates for this type of arrangement. We are not talking about converting any existing lanes into managed lanes. It would all be new. Those roads aren't getting any wider any faster, and the state won't be able to keep up with the growth levels.

The program is very important because it helps the recruiters be more effective to target qualified candidates for specific missions.

There are several good candidates on the atomic weapons front.

We have to come away from Nice able to look the candidates for membership in the eye

This was a major sabotage by the political parties because they simply didn't trust something that was new. You simply have to have political parties and their operatives campaigning abroad to stimulate interest and excitement, to convince voters that their candidates are worth it. That's what you do in politics.

The PAP has the resources to scrutinize opposition candidates with a fine-tooth comb. Anyone joining us has to be ready for it.

There are a lot of wonderful candidates out there, and to be selected shocked me. It caught me off guard. It shows that this award is more than just being a great athlete. It shows you have to work hard in the classroom.

There are lots of external candidates out there.

We made a conscious decision to become more involved politically. It's kind of been an evolution of the process in which we recognized that not necessarily to get a seat at the table but to get someone's ear, to be able to be an influencer, if you would, to support candidates that support our objectives for our customers, that we were going to have to be more involved.

The only reason the other candidates for the Senate are not here is because there are no corporations here writing checks.

We will move just as quickly and efficiently as we can to focus on those candidates around the country who possess the talent and experience to lead our program back to its traditional position of prominence within the Big Ten and at the national level.
