A new poll out taken by a Republican group that shows most Democrats prefer socialism to capitalism. Those terms don't mean what they did maybe 40, 50 years ago.

More quotes by Chris Matthews
Canonization in modern times is a very, almost scientific process.
Chris Matthews
I mean, if somebody said to me, junior year of college, you can go anywhere, your old man's paying for it, I'd have been gone in a flash. But I had to work. Every summer my mother would say, 'Get that job and hold on to it until August 30.'
Chris Matthews
That is the voice of God because its the voice of truth and experience.
Chris Matthews
It looks to me like the Republican Party`s in no mood to give them [voters] a reasonable choice with this clown show going on right now from the likes of, well, Newt Gingrich and Donald Trump. What a duo.
Chris Matthews
And then there's Israel - a lot of people support Israel, and it's important to Israel to take out Iraq. So it's all mixed together. It's a combination of motives.
Chris Matthews
Whether the Bushes, or whoever they are, they always end up in the end with the money and the ability to really blow away anybody who dares challenge them.
Chris Matthews
I do still think there is a big disconnect between Republicans in Washington, D.C., and Republicans everywhere I go. When you start talking about, you know, foreign entanglements, they just don`t want any part of it.
Chris Matthews
There is absolutely no record ever of Hillary Clinton or anyone in her campaign ever saying that President [Barack] Obama is not legitimate.
Chris Matthews
Wouldn`t it be great for some of the Republican candidates to stand up to the money guys and say, if you want a presidential nominee who will do what the Bushes did, go from war to war, look elsewhere.
Chris Matthews
I think Bernie's [Sanders] setting a direction in the way that [Barry] Goldwater when he lost - I'm not saying he's going to lose. We don't know what is going to happen. It's early. But I think he's already set a lot of themes.
Chris Matthews
President [Barack] Obama's staking his reelection hopes on rebuilding America's middle class. He wants higher taxes on the wealthy, tougher rules on Wall Street, and everyone else to get a fair shot to succeed. Republicans can cry class warfare if they want, but as the president put it today, it's about this country's welfare.
Chris Matthews
If Bernie Sanders hasn't been able to draw a contrast with Hillary Clinton, why is he doing so well, a guy - most people never heard of this fellow before this year.
Chris Matthews
The Catholic Church [with Pope John Paul II] has lost its shepherd. The world has lost a champion of human freedom.
Chris Matthews
There ought to be an onus on the people that want a law, rather than people that don`t need a new law.
Chris Matthews
I think, any politician, you have to hold them to their word. And conservatives run on fiscal conservatism. .
Chris Matthews
Isn't it odd that the guy was politically correct in one particularly weird way. Bill Clinton never lit a cigar.
Chris Matthews
If you want to play a game, go to where it's played and find a way to get in. Things happen when you get in the game.
Chris Matthews
His [John Paul II] humanity, combined with his extraordinary spiritual authority, was unlike anything I've ever met.
Chris Matthews
The real difference between relationship politics and transactional politics is loyalty. [Barack] Obama doesn't seem to expect it.
Chris Matthews
Just look at who won the third debate between Bush and Gore. I knew Bush won, because people liked him more. People just didn't like Gore. But all the journalists thought Gore won big, he cleaned the guy's clock.
