Reelection ought not to be the primary preoccupation of any politician. It ought to be standing up for truth and justice.
Cornel West

Don't kid yourself. President Obama's decision to withdraw 33,000 troops from Afghanistan before he stands for reelection is not driven by the United States' 'position of strength' in the war zone as much as it is by grim economic and political realities at home.
Ron Fournier

I guess politicians can be excused for thinking the electorate is stupid because they keep winning reelection. If you were Barbara Boxer or Harry Reid and you kept being reelected, you'd have to think, 'Half of my state is stupid.' But then you wouldn't be smart enough to think that if you had their brains.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
In the months after George W. Bush's reelection, a lot of liberals and environmentalists were ready to take a hard look at their political agenda, the Democratic Party, and the interest groups they supported.
Ted Nordhaus
Image
I could end the deficit in 5 minutes. You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP all sitting members of congress are ineligible for reelection.
Warren Buffett
Image
Congress wants to keep under God in the Pledge of Allegiance. Washington politicians are united in their faith. Most worship the same reelection.
Allan Ray

Down in Texas, Rick Perry announced he will not run for reelection. He said 'I executed one last woman, that fertilizer plant exploded, I returned abortions to back alleys where it belongs, my work here is done.' I think that's what he said, he was chewing a crayon.
Bill Maher
Image
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

The reelection of Bill Clinton is as secure as a double-knot tied in wet rawhide.
Dan Rather
Image
When someone is running for reelection in Texas, they're not looking for votes in California or New York.
Ezra G. Levin

It was a particular pleasure to examine President Ronald Reagan's leadership. I experienced it first-hand, as a member of his administration in several capacities as well as his 1984 reelection campaign staff. The most common misconception is that Reagan was a bystander to his own career.
James M Strock

In the last 100 years only Presidents George H.W. Bush, Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford lost their bids for reelection. President Lyndon Johnson did not run for a second term.
Juan Williams
Image
Vladimir Putin will be up for reelection, and he has shifted his whole political strategy inside of Russia from one where he promised the Russians pretty much a chicken in every pot, a better economic way of life.
Michael McFaul
Image
Obama hasn't been working to earn reelection, he's been working to earn a spot on the PGA tour!
Mitch McConnell
Image
President George W. Bush won reelection in 2004 largely because he was seen as comfortable in his own skin, while rival John Kerry was viewed as a flip-flopping opportunist.
Ron Fournier
Image
When Barack Obama was caught telling Dmitry Medvedev, Tell Vlad to be patient. We'll get rid of our nukes after I win reelection and I'll have more flexibility. That was in 2012, right before the election.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
The Governor would serve a five-year term and be ineligible for reelection.
Thomas Jefferson
Image
I supported Barack Obama originally. I supported him for reelection and the alternative of a Mitt Romney is very, very clear to everybody. And I think the president has done a good job in a number of areas. But one area that has concerned me from day one has been his reliance on Wall Street type people in terms of financial matters.
Bernie Sanders
Image
I knew the President would run for reelection in 1984. Why not? Actors love sequels ... and returns.
Bob Hope
Image
Members of Congress care about reelection most of all. And that means they care about their constituents. So you have to be a constituent to make your voice heard.
Ezra G. Levin
Image
As I get close to my election, I want to spend more time in my district and focus on my reelection.
Henry Cuellar
Image
The grand larceny that occurred in Russia, the corruption that resulted in nine or ten people getting enormous wealth through loans-for-shares, was condoned because it allowed the reelection of Boris Yeltsin.
Joseph Stiglitz
Image
I am surprised with the reelection of Mr. Obama. The S&P is only down, like, 30 points. I would have thought that the market on his reelection should be down at least 50%.
Marc Faber
Image
[Obama's reelection] would subject the country to what might be a fatal last dose of statism.
