Quotes I often tell the story of my grandmother, Sarah Daisy, who wanted to work for the federal government. She taped a piece of paper to the refrigerator to teach herself how to type in order to pass a Civil Service Exam, which included a typing test.

We are in a good position to win the primary … because the coalition of people have shown up. They are excited.
