You don't have to be smart to frame a guy like Willie Stark.

No, no brother, you don't.

It is a frame, isn't it?...To split the vote and win the election for Harrison, huh?

You know, why do ya ask?

I just want to make sure. Look, why don't you tell the boys to save their money? Willie couldn't steal a vote from Abe Lincoln in the cradle of the Confederacy.

I wish the poor ...had enough sense to have somebody give him a good reason for the beating he's going to get. 'Cause this way, all he gets out of it is the ride. Hey, those speeches, ain't they awful? Ain't they just plain awful? Question to you: If somebody told him he was a sucker, do you think he'd quit?

I don't know, Sadie. I really don't know.
