More quotes by Dick Morris
Take whatever position you want, but do take a position, because once you do, ample money awaits you on either side.
Dick Morris
We will shortly become like Germany, France, the United Kingdom, or Sweden - a socialist democracy in which the government dominates the economy, determines private-sector priorities and offers a vastly expanded range of services to many more people at much higher taxes.
Dick Morris
In the real world, banks hang onto their money for fear of making bad loans, no matter how many bailouts or stimulus packages Washington passes.
Dick Morris

Dick Morris
The stronger Hillary is, the weaker she is. The more she seems like a likely presidential winner, the more difficult the senate race becomes in New York. It's perfect.

Nothing works on the campaign trail like attacks on candidates for bad attendance. It alienates people on both sides of every issue and reflects a callous disregard of the work of the people. The feeble argument that I'm running for president isn't much of a rebuttal: George W. Bush finds time to be president, and he's running too.
Dick Morris
Leadership is a dynamic tension between where a politician thinks his country must go and where his voters want it to go.

Dick Morris
I love Karl Rove. He elected Bush.
Dick Morris
Growth demands investment, and investment demands stability. So the more Obama stirs the pot with his proposals and potential changes, the more he retards exactly the investment he needs to get the economy moving again.
Dick Morris
As Bob Dole found out, you can't keep a positive image while being your party's mouthpiece in Congress. That's why no legislative leader since James Madison has ever been elected president.
Dick Morris
I didn't do what they said I did. I may have done enough so that I don't know if I can prove my innocence.
Dick Morris
Spin is overrated. It is strategy, not spin, that wins elections.
Dick Morris
The White House will run itself while the president is away. That's why he has to be sure not to be away too much.
Dick Morris
There is no substitute for a clear vision and a decisive direction.

The cost of campaigning has skyrocketed in recent years because of the falloff in TV viewership. With only one-third as many people watching TV as did 20 years ago, politicians have responded by buying three times as many ads, driving the cost of campaigning to levels which only favored candidates can afford.
