They're counting the votes, but as usual, I think we have exceeded expectations, i always note that a lot of people didn't even think that I would still be standing at this point.

We're already running ads in Super Tuesday states, we're headed to South Carolina for the debate and there we go.

I think having a president that maybe is humble and is able to admit that here... wouldn't be a bad thing, you're on the committee that oversees border security.

Amy Klobuchar have not been in the arena doing that work. Amy Klobuchar've memorized a bunch of talking points, you know, maybe leading a diverse city that was facing ruin doesn't sound like the arena to you.

That official that you are referring to was supported by about half the Democrats, including some in this room. And I will say this : He was highly recommended by the Obama officials.

Mayor Buttigieg really has a slogan that was thought up by Mayor Buttigieg consultants to paper over a thin version of a plan that would leave millions of people unable to afford their health care. It's not a plan. It's a PowerPoint, and Amy's plan is even less. It's like Insert Plan,' Insert Plan Here.

I wish everyone was as perfect as you, Pete, youve memorized a bunch of talking points.

I must say I take personal offense, since Post-It notes were invented in my state.

We need to improve the Affordable Care Act, not blow it up.

He just can't hide behind the airwaves, he has to answer questions and of course, I think he should be on that debate stage.

My heart is full tonight, while there are still ballots left to count, we have beaten the odds every step of the way, we have done it on the merits, we have done it with ideas, and we have done it with hard work.

I do not have to biggest name up on this stage, I don't have the biggest bank account. I'm not a political newcomer with no record, but I have a record of fighting for people, i'm asking you to believe that someone who totally believes in America can win this, because if you are tired of the extremes in our politics and the noise and the nonsense, you have a home with me.

Tonight is about grit, and my story, like so many of yours, is one of resilience, i announced my candidacy in the middle of a Minnesota blizzard. And there were a lot of people that predicted I wouldn't even get through that speech, but not the people of my state, and not the people of New Hampshire. Except, then they predicted that we wouldn't make it through the summer. We did. Then they predicted we wouldn't make it to the debates and Man, were we at the debate in New Hampshire.

In my case, it was elected to the Amy Klobuchar Senate ; no woman had ever done it before, but I came back. I defied expectations and I won. ... And tonight in New Hampshire, as everyone had counted us out, even a week ago -- thank you, pundits -- I came back, and we delivered.

Donald Trump's worst nightmare is a candidate who will bring people in from the middle, i think we need someone to head up this ticket that actually brings people with her instead of shutting them out.

It is easy to go after Washington, because that's a popular thing to do.

I will tell you this, there is a complete lack of empathy in this guy in the White House right now and I will bring back to you, if you have trouble stretching your paycheck to pay for that rent, I know you and I will fight for you. If you have trouble deciding if youre going to pay for your child care or your long-term care, I know you and I will fight for you. I do not have the biggest name up on this stage, I dont have the biggest bank account, Im not a political newcomer with no record, but I have a record of fighting for people.

We know there are delays, but we know one thing -- we are punching above our weight !

I'm asking you take this over the goal line for me, i want you to score a touch down. ...OK, that's enough.

I think that instead of just putting your money out there, he's actually got to be on the stage and be able to go back and forth so that voters can evaluate him.
