Claire Quote #247

Quote from Claire in Little Bo Bleep

Claire: You know what the worst part of today was?
Alex: I imagine it's hard to choose.
Claire: When everything was melting down, I realized I had an answer to your question, why I was running. I wanted to make my family proud, and I did the exact opposite.
Alex: No.
Claire: No, I did. I totally embarrassed you.
Alex: No. No, dad embarrassed me. I was proud of you. I think it's cool you're running for local office. I mean, it's totally nerdy, and that's kind of my thing.
Claire: Hmm. Maybe it's kind of our thing.

Quote from Mitchell

Cameron: What about the wedding? What if she says it there? She's like a ticking time bomb!
Mitchell: Well, what are we gonna do, cancel?
Cameron: Yes. Maybe we just call and say, "We're not going to any more weddings until the gays can get married."
Mitchell: Oh, so now we're political? We leave town on gay pride weekend because we don't like the traffic.

Quote from Alex

Alex: Mom, just be confident.
Claire: Mm-hmm? Based on what? I just lost a debate in my living room, and people think I'm unlikable.

Alex: I've always assumed adoption or baby switch.

Quote from Phil

Phil: [aside to camera] Busy day at the Dunphy compound. We have a wedding tonight, and this afternoon, Claire is debating Duane Bailey in the race for town council. And now the "weekly saver" says that some voters find Claire, quote, "angry and unlikable." To those voters, I say, "Wait till she sees this."
