other votes are we got to attract. We can sit down and we can figure out what it is those votes we want to attract - the independent voters - want to know about us, what it is they want to know about our program, what it is they want to know about me or any other candidate. We can figure out what will attract them, what will make them like us. We can't tell them anything that isn't true, but we can emphasize the things they're interested in. That's the way you attract the independent voter.

“You couldn't do that if when you were attracting the independent voter you were worrying about all these people down in New York. You've got them. You know you've got them. That is what makes a party government. The people stay hitched to that party. They try to effect the reforms and the changes they think ought to be effected through that party. They stayed with it in black and white, in thick and thin, in defeat and in victory. That's what a party government is. That's why it's important for everybody who wants to accomplish anything in the political field, or by the political means, to be in a party and stay there.

“These people who jump around from one party to another never accomplish anything. Look at So-and-So....” I don't remember the people he cited, but they were always having a piece in the paper about what they thought about things.
