as a personal favor.

Personally, Senator...

Paul Smith is his name.

Half the girls were there, about a zillion boys.

but my personal life...

I still have a year and a half on my term. That's a long time to recover.

- You want half? - Uh, no, thank you.

because of half-truths, lies and innuendoes.

So you would allow a personal political belief to enter into such a decision?

I need a vice president. And I need a person who's gonna reflect my politics.

Six and a half years in the White House, press still hasn't gotten wind of these bastards.

Well, I appreciate you telling me personally, Mr. President.

Senator Laine Billings Hanson of Ohio is that person.

No, not my personal life. It's just nobody's business.

she was just sort of clasping that person's hand.

Personally, I think the nation would be relieved to know that just because she's a woman...

When I was in the Senate, Bettis could always be counted to leave half a grand at the poker table.

Such pettiness and such greatness are rarely found in one person.

But the president didn't consider it important enough to ask me personally?

There's only one person in the world that has that phone number.
