Well qualified candidates who aren't tied to party leaders don't even get a shot.

Jeremy Creelan

The animals were just tied to here, there, stacked up here, stacked up on garbage there, buried under garbage here. It was pretty bad.

Doug Mccroskey

I think a lot of it will be tied to housing. Gas prices are ticking back up, and they are higher than they were the same time last year.

Chris Mccarty

The vast majority of bodies showed signs of summary execution - many with their hands tied behind their back. Some showed evidence of torture, with arms and leg joints broken by electric drills.

John Pace

It's a routine thing they do to break you. It chills free speech. Your hands are tied now.

Ainsley Stewart

I have to eliminate a few mistakes. To win out here, you can't have mistakes. I've had a double bogey every day, and I'm still, what, tied for second?

Craig Barlow

I was not nervous, but I told the guys not to celebrate. I almost wish the game had been tied. It might have been a different outcome.

John Morgan

Nobody is tied to a special interest, none that I can discern, which means they are all independent, and that is so important to forming a team, because if you have somebody who is sold out to a special interest they're never going to get along.

Phil Hardberger

The identity ought to be tied to the community. It ought to be unique. We took that and used that for guidance.

Carm Basile

That was big because they had tied the game and we answered right back.

Dave Petrocelli

We performed well, but obviously Ohio State is a good team, they are tied for second with us (in the rankings). It was neck and neck; this meet they just performed better.

Yoshi Hayasaki

Too often executive pay is not tied to performance.

John Keenan

We are a very rural county. Our hands were just tied. Now citizens have a recourse.

Cheryl Johnson

We scored twice in the first period. In the second they got two goals and we got one. In the third they tied it up and then at 11:53 we went ahead for good.

Topper Mcfaun

We came out a little sluggish, and they were more fired up than we were. It was tied before I hit that three, and that momentum swing definitely just took it right out of them. It was a big momentum swing.

Boone Thorgesen

You have to get to a mental state where you won't break. (Once you break), there's nothing you can do about it. There have been a lot of matches where I've been really close. Even though I was tied up, I didn't panic. If I don't break, I can still win matches.

Hunter Collins

We are pretty sure that the boys were seventh and the girls tied for fifth, but I don't even know who we tied.

Dan Rohrs

Parking, traffic, those are issues tied to urban life. It's not necessarily a bad thing, ... I don't know how a merchant can think there's too much traffic.

Anthony Adams

The overriding theme of these numbers is that these guys are pretty much tied, and will likely stay that way for a long time.

Alberto Martinez

I definitely think we picked it up in the second half. We tied the game, we had our chances. We got faster as the game went on.

Tyler Leachman

We knew it would be a tough one. Our series was tied up at one with us winning just a few days ago. We knew they were hungry for a win and we knew they were coming at full strength.

Brian Holt

It was unbelievable. Making the finals is one thing, but getting to a Game 7 and being tied in that game after the first period is another. A lot of people think they have a chance to win the Cup, but the only chance to win the Cup is when you have three wins in the final. It's something that I'll always remember, but in the end, we came up empty.

Mike Babcock

You're seeing the effects of an electricity pricing mechanism that's tied to the cost of natural gas. Companies that are larger producers from coal and nuclear are getting a higher-than-anticipated benefit.

James Halloran

We scratched and clawed our way back and tied it, and we probably had our worst four possessions of the game in a row right there. We turned the ball over and gave them a couple of open shots. I don't know if we were casual. It's hard for me to identify exactly what caused that.

Cathy Nixon

They cut a deal with a company that is government-owned and is tied to a country with some links to 9-11.

Miguel Lopez

We have a basic agreement and there are basic loose ends that need to be tied (up).

Trade Minister Mandisi Mpahlwa

That patient is currently in a nursing home completely demented, tied to a chair drooling on herself and doesn't recognize anybody, ... She was in pretty nearly that condition at the time she filed that complaint.

Terry Bennett

Just because he's tied for the league lead, that doesn't mean you can't run on him. So what are you going to do? He made a good throw. You gave to give credit to him.

Manny Acta

Every dime I have is tied up with Michael Guy Simmons and I have no money to go anywhere.

Richard Grimes

[In fact, as gasoline prices hit record levels, it may be the economy that most affects donations.] Giving is closely tied to the economy, ... and that's what might have the largest impact.

Eugene Tempel

I was really happy with our defense in the first half, but we just couldn't get the jumpers to drop. We were 0-for-8 from the free throw line. Little things like that. I don't think we played that badly. A couple of breaks and it could have been a tied game. That's a credit to them. They had those runs. They got some fast breaks. That was not part of the game plan.

Ethan Roe

We saw children who were essentially abandoned, starving, tied down to their beds.

Eric Rosenthal

It was tied 1-1 for quite a while ... it was pretty evenly matched.

Eric Peltzer

It is very much tied to the fan loyalty of these drivers. These are six of the best drivers on the circuit. When they win, we win.

Eric Kraus

Maybe the inhibitory network is where the capacity is for large-scale changes. What's more, this growth is tied to use, so even as adults, the more we use our minds, the more robust they can be.

Elly Nedivi

It would be really hard to let it all go. It would be really hard. We have a lot of memories tied up there. My mother dearly loved the area.

Ellen Wright

Hobby Lobby has St. Patrick's ornaments and garland and valentine's, but back to school -- that was another story. I had to make blocks, little crayons tied together. I tied those in little bundles for ornaments.

Ellen Locke

This Government has tied our police up in so much red tape that instead of being on the streets dealing with crime they now spend half their time at their desks.

Edward Garnier

Your idea of bliss is to wake up on a Monday morning knowing you haven't a single engagement for the entire week. You are cradled in a white paper cocoon tied up with typewriter ribbon.

Edna Ferber

He appeared to have died on the night of June 11 after he was hog-tied and separated from the rest of the hostages.

Edilberto Adan

I had a chance to read his biography, ... He was a fierce competitor, very acrobatic and obviously very brave, not wearing a mask most of his career. I'm just honored to be tied with him.

Ed Belfour

What's good about this team is that they're able to play with all the tension and anxiety that goes along with being down or being tied.

Ed Witz

Yet the ratings kept going down. We finally figured it out; people don't dislike John, they're just tired of bad news. When they flip on the TV, they want to get AWAY from their problems, not hear about people getting thrown overboard tied to their boat anchor or working out so they can strangle innocent kids faster and better.

Ed Asner

On their issues, Gore should win hands-down. He's tied with Bush now, but that's more to do with the educational issue and the family values issue ... not the right-to-life issue, but what they want their kids to be taught, right from wrong.

Ed Sarpolus

Museum spaces tend to be the kind of spaces where you can do a number of different things and it doesn't matter which white box you're in. Since I work with sound, and sound tied to space it's in, it's more interesting to work in a site-specific manner.

Ed Osborn

This was a brutal killing that someone ordered. He and his entourage, their hands tied, were driven out of town and gunned down in cold blood.

Zharmakhan Tuyakbai
