Helen Thomas, the legendary reporter, reacting to a Doonesbury cartoon that jokes that she was Harry Truman's lover

 

"Jesus himself could come back as a Republican candidate these days, and there would still be some people saying, 'I don't know about that guy.'"

Gov. Mark Sanford, Republican of South Carolina, on fickle voters

 

"He's a remote-control freak. Once he gets hold of the remote control, forget it."

Cindy McCain, on her husband, Sen. John McCain, a Republican presidential candidate
