Famous Donna Brazile Quotes

“Republicans bring out Colin Powell and J. C. Watts because they have no program, no policy. The play that game because they have no other game. They have no love and no joy. They'd rather take pictures with black children than feed them.”

As quoted in "Gore Aide Dealt From Bottom of Race Deck, Powell Says" http://www.highbeam.com/Search?searchTerm=%22Republicans+bring+out+Colin+Powell%22 (7 January 2000), by Ceci Connolly, The Washington Post

But the limits are much higher for contributions to state parties and a party’s national committee.
