More quotes by Dick Morris
Spin is overrated. It is strategy, not spin, that wins elections.
Dick Morris
Public-opinion polls show that Americans split about evenly on civil unions. But when the words 'gay marriage' are presented, they break 3-to-1 against it.
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
... the top 10 percent of incomes pay 70 percent of the income taxes and cast about 25 percent of the vote.
Dick Morris
A politician can do what he thinks is right, he just has to be sophisticated in how he goes about it. Those who seek a president who 'will disregard the polls and just lead,' ask for the political equivalent of 'The Charge of the Light Brigade.'
Dick Morris
The Iraq War marked the beginning of the end of network news coverage. Viewers saw the juxtaposition of the embedded correspondents reporting the war as it was actually unfolding and the jaundiced, biased, negative coverage of these same events in the network newsrooms.
Dick Morris
Presidents generally do what they are good at in their first four years, then spend their second term responding to the agendas imposed upon them by events.
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
Democrats are not about to nominate anyone who backs the tax cut, and Americans are not going to elect anyone who favors a tax increase.
Dick Morris
You cannot cover the 50 million new people Obama seeks to cover without more doctors and nurses. But the administration and even the Blue Dogs in the House have proposed nothing to add to the supply of medical services even as they plan vastly to increase the demand by covering new people.
Dick Morris
If you're going to be a sexual predator, be a Democrat.
Dick Morris
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
Spontaneous combustion of grassroots politics is the future.
Dick Morris
There is no substitute for a clear vision and a decisive direction.
Dick Morris
The most basic decision a modern politician must make is whether to be aggressive or conciliatory.
Dick Morris
Every donation received is a potential negative ad. Vetting money is just as important as raising it.
Dick Morris
The problem: Democrats have to drop their stupid class-warfare rhetoric. With 74 million Americans owning stock in one form or another, anything which helps them can't be derided as a sop to the rich.
Dick Morris
Anybody who thinks that getting a communication from a voter in your district is spam - that guy is pork. Roast pork unless he changes his point of view.
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.

[T]he harm [Clinton AG] Reno did to American national security in the fight against terror was incalculable.
