More quotes by Tim Kaine
When I was running for governor, I was attacked pretty strongly because of my position on the death penalty. But I looked the voters of Virginia in the eye and said, look, this is my religion. I'm not going to change my religious practice to get one vote, but I know how to take an oath and uphold the law. And if you elect me, I will uphold the law.

Donald Trump doesn't have a plan. He said, I have a secret plan, and then he said, um, I know more than all the generals about ISIS. And then he said, I'm going to call the generals to help me figure out a plan. And finally he said, I'm going to fire all the generals. He doesn't have a plan. But he does have dangerous ideas.
Tim Kaine
I can be president of the United States, and if I can do that, I can do anything.
Tim Kaine
The permanent institutional expertise class is now no longer the legislators, it's the lobbyists who don't have term limits and are there forever.
Tim Kaine
I ask the GOP leaders also to stand up for the integrity of the American electoral process.
Tim Kaine
I just want to serve people. I know it sounds like a simple cliche.
Tim Kaine
But people ought to be proud to be Democrats right now. You know, we're a happy warrior party. And this Congress has every reason to be very, very proud of the heavy lifting that they have done.

Vladimir Putin is a dictator. He's not a leader. Anybody who thinks otherwise doesn't know Russian history and they don't know Vladimir Putin. Hillary Clinton knows exactly who this guy is. John McCain said, I look in his eyes and I see KGB. And Hillary kind of has that same feeling.
Tim Kaine
The national security issues are very important for two reasons. First, because everybody knows that we want to be safe. But, secondly, people see these issues as probably the clearest window into somebody's temperament, their judgment, whether they're steady or volatile.
Tim Kaine
You have got to connect your land use decisions with transportation decisions.
Tim Kaine
You spend your time blaming the other for what's not getting done and you actually do a couple things, and then you switch to, Hey, let's instead compete about who gets the credit for what we just did. And that's a lot more fun.
Tim Kaine
You will look in vain to see Donald Trump ever taking responsibility for anybody and apologize.
Tim Kaine
You don't need to apologize for an opinion, but in terms of respect for the church and people's faith lives, Hillary Clinton has that respect, because it's what motivates her.
Tim Kaine
I think we need to fight against Trumpism in the courts, we need to fight at the ballot box and online, and we need to do peaceful protesting. We need to use every lever at our disposal to make sure that the president doesn't hurt our country, our values, and our people.
Tim Kaine
The lessons of history show - and I'm not talking about any particular history, all history - when you see minor abuses start to build up in the intolerance space and do nothing about them, then they lead to bigger and bigger abuses.
Tim Kaine
I am proud of Hillary Clinton because she has been and is a great history maker - in everything she has done.
Tim Kaine
My sense is that economic anxiety means electoral volatility.
Tim Kaine
The current situation in Iraq is ultimately a crisis of governance, which has allowed extremist groups to take advantage of disillusioned segments of the Iraqi population.
Tim Kaine
The job of a legislator is much more fixing existing law, revising it, improving it, than it is passing something that doesn't exist.
Tim Kaine
In fact, that's a great thing about America and even about being Catholic, we have plenty of opinions.
