One thing about a pig, he thinks he's warm if his nose is warm. I saw a bunch of pigs one time that had frozen together in a rosette, each one's nose tucked under the rump of the one in front. We have a lot of pigs in politics.

Being in politics is like being a football coach. You have to be smart enough to understand the game, and dumb enough to think it's important.
