More quotes by Jennifer Granholm
I have a problem with Mitt Romney. And it's big problem - one that extends beyond our ideological differences. My big concern is that Mitt Romney wants to become president for no other reason than because there's a possibility he can win.
Jennifer Granholm
The Kerry campaign was a difficult one to be involved with, it is a real juggling act to set the tone and pace of these things accurately.
Jennifer Granholm
Studies have shown that since women have had access to the pill and family planning measures, they have made huge gains in both wages and in careers that were dominated by men.
Jennifer Granholm
We need to continue to make the case that Michigan is where you ought to be.

We need, first of all, for there to be accountability, for there to be somebody who is responsible for enforcing standards and holding people's feet to the fire.

Caring for veterans shouldn’t be a partisan issue. It should an American one.
Jennifer Granholm

It's that Romney is taking advantage of the government's free stuff, too, and has been profiting from it handsomely for a long, long time - even as he rails about the free stuff that the government provides other people.

I'm honestly perplexed about the distinction represented by the cervical wall. On one side, people should be prosecuted if they do anything to harm the fetus, but once on the outside, sorry kid, whatever happens happens. You're on your own.
Jennifer Granholm
Those who purify your water, inspect your meat, and test your kids toys, as well as a huge number of nurses, teachers, and our soldiers, are public employees. The firefighters who don't hesitate to rush toward danger while you run away from it - they are all public employees.
Jennifer Granholm
California is beautiful to look at, but you can't be a part of it like you can in Michigan.
Jennifer Granholm
I say Democrats should not be afraid to talk about the morality of life, of caring for children who are born. It seems the Republican obsession with being pro-life lasts about nine months. After that, it’s each baby for herself.
Jennifer Granholm
America is an idea. And it's the solemn responsibility of each 'temporary' president to protect and nurture that noblest of all ideas - with integrity. This man, Mitt Romney, has shown - not through his experience, but through his actions and words - that he is unqualified to carry out that responsibility.
Jennifer Granholm
The question is what will Mitt Romney do as president if his policy is simply to be hands off and let the government be made so small it can be drowned in a bathtub. In the 21st century global economy, no state alone has the ability to compete against China.
Jennifer Granholm
If you are tired of partisanship over patriotism, you need to vote for a change in direction.
Jennifer Granholm
We need to be celebrating those who serve us rather than mocking them for the purpose of getting on TV and selling some books.
Jennifer Granholm

Jennifer Granholm
Every single country that has an auto industry is stepping forward to help that auto industry. Why wouldn't we help this industry too, because it needs 3.5 million jobs.
Jennifer Granholm
We're on the cusp, on the brink, of enormous change in this country.
