	Former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton and President Barack Obama, each were told repeatedly, 'You can't win.' They all won.

	I think that people have realized it's very unwise to bet against Donald Trump.

	The caricatures that the mainstream media and the Democrats have about Republicans have taken hold.

	Women, if left to their own devices, are going to tend and trend Democratic. That is absolutely the case.

	I didn't even know I was the first female Republican campaign manager until someone pointed it out to me on Twitter, and I said that can't be true. And then I realized this must be such a small group of women. And right away, I know them all - Susan Estrich and Donna Brazile and Beth Myers - and I respect them enormously.

	You can't appeal to us through our wombs, we're pro-life. The fetus beat us. We grew up with sonograms. We know life when we see it.

	I look at what the polls say about attributes. I noticed in 2004 that George W. Bush led John Kerry by double digits for eight straight months on the question of who is more likely to take a position and stick with it.

	Donald Trump performs consistently better in online polling, where a human being is not talking to another human being about what he or she may do in the election.

	Hillary is the Mitt Romney of 2016, where she has very little in common with the average person. She doesn't drive herself anywhere, she doesn't put on her own makeup, she doesn't cook her own meals, and she doesn't research her own materials. She has very little in common with the average woman.

	The fact is, in Mike Huckabee's case, he can say, 'I was a preacher, I'm a Christian, and so I believe that life begins at conception, ends at natural death.'

	I've been in a very male-dominated business for decades. I found, particularly early on, that there's plenty of room for passion, but there's very little room for emotion.

	Women are trying to have it all but are trying to regain control over their time. That's why many women are busting out of the traditional workforce and starting their own businesses.

	Candidates matter. Campaigns matter. 'He can win' or 'She can't win' is up there with, 'I'm going to lose 10 pounds, win the lottery, and live forever.' Saying it does not make it so.

	Republican politics can sometimes feel like you're walking into, you know, an Elks Club or bachelor party.

	Of course there's racism in this country, and we have a terrible history of that in this nation.   
- 
	
	The country is increasingly culturally conservative, with a small C. Every time marriage is on the ballot, it passes. People are increasingly pro-life. They don't like taxes.

	One of the most important things I tell my children is that hard work can pay off. You can’t quit. You can’t complain. You never claim it’s unfair or unequal.

	The errors in media polling rarely benefit a Republican.   
- 
	
	The average American is more focused on leadership than likeability. And more focused on qualifications than quality of speakership.

	Although it shouldn't be, men behaving badly is sort of an occupational hazard for those working in Washington.

	2016 is a change election, and that favors Trump.   
- 
	
	Women overwhelmingly support conservative policies.   
- 
	
	Romney, like Sen. John McCain and Bob Dole before him, were meant to mollify moderates, attract Independents, and 'rebrand' the party in a way that mostly fits the ideal of media types who would never vote Republican anyhow. Each of them lost.   
- 
	
	Americans overwhelmingly believe that Americans who want to do jobs, who are looking for work, should have a fair opportunity, if not a preference, to do that work.
