If you listen to their comments about each other, the Miller campaign - rather than responding to the announcement that Miller was going to run in a critical way - said we welcome more Democrats to the party.

More Quotes from Quentin Kidd:
The incentive for CEOs who focus on improving their quarterly reports is short term, at the expense of long-term, sustained growth. And so you see things, as we have seen in recent years, where CEOs are more willing to play with the books or make acquisitions that look good in the interim but may detract from the long-term mission.Quentin Kidd
When Clinton was elected, a lot of people on the right said it was a fluke, that it wouldn't have happened if Perot hadn't been there.

He has to be really careful about how he positions himself to remain in the spotlight. Luckily for him, he has the money to do it. It's one thing if you don't have the resources. It's another thing if you have the resources, and you can make yourself visible. He's going to have to find a way to do that.
