More From Dee Dee Myers
- "It never occurred to me that I wouldn’t go to college and have a career – as well as a family – of my own. Both my parents, but especially my mother, encouraged me and led me to believe that it was possible."
- "It isn’t fate but fecklessness that has shoved Sarah Palin to the sidelines of national politics. The real tragedy is that she’s taken a lot of other serious Republican women with her."
- "The exposed nature of life in the public square affects leaders’ attitudes toward risk – and failure."
More In Trust
- "While eschewing emotion – and its companion, vulnerability – Obama should be careful not to sacrifice empathy, the ‘I feel your pain’ connection that sustained Clinton. This connection is the shorthand people use to measure their leaders’ intentions. If people believe you’re on their side, they will trust your decisions."― Dee Dee Myers
- "You may be right that people say: ‘You know what, we had Obama. He was inexperienced. The guy had great rhetoric, sounded good, looked good, but has turned out to be an utter disaster. I want someone where I have confidence and credibility that they’re up to the job and that I can trust what they tell me.’"― Karl Rove
- "America is a country ready to be taken, in fact, longing to be taken by political leaders ready to restore democracy and trust to the political process."― Arianna Huffington
