Had to look up the Reagan comment. It's actually, "I'm paying for this microphone, Mr. Green."
Feb 23, 1980: In the New Hampshire primary, a single symbolic act dramatized the debut of Reagan's new image as a candidate and the demise of Bush's presidential hopes. It occurred during what was scheduled to be a two-person debate between Bush and Reagan in Nashua, New Hampshire, on Feburary 23, the Saturday before balloting. As it turned out, Bush crumpled under pressure orchestrated by Reagan's camp.
Initially, both Reagan and Bush had seen advantages in a two-person debate sponsored by a local newspaper. When the FEC ruled that newspaper sponsorship of the debate amounted to an illegal campaign contribution and when Bush refused to pay half of the debate's cost, Reagan agreed to underwrite it himself.
Reagan then moved to include the other five contenders - a move that identified him both as a candidate and a unifier. When the other candidates showed up on stage, Bush froze.
As Reagan made his case for inclusion of the other candidates, the moderator ordered Reagan's mike turned off. Reagan responded, "I'm paying for this microphone, Mr. Green." The fact that the moderator's name was Breen seemed to matter little. The crowd cheered. When neither newspaper hosting the debate nor Bush would accede to the inclusion of the others, the other candidates left the stage. Reagan's prospects had been boosted, Bush's buried. Reagan carried New Hampshire 50% to Bush's 23%.

WOW! Nice list...
hmmmm... I must be chop-liver.... :)
GPG
I cast a bandwagon jumper vote. And, yes, I am registered to vote, except for not in Canada...
George,
I here by officially nominate you!
Tim
I think Mara and I are probably disqualified here, being freelance hires of A/V... :)
One critical nomination not on this list-- the amazing Tim W, host and blogger extraordinaire! I saw him nominated on the facebook thread-- would love to have it added here.
I vote for Margaret Liss.
Hi Sean,
Dave was keen not to exclude anybody, so you're on the list... although if I'm hosting/moderating the vote, I think I should be excluded... but thanks for the mention!
Tim
Oooh! I can't believe I even got nominated! I'm very proud and appreciative to anyone who thought of me...
We all know from CerebusTV that the Ultimate Comics Fan is... Dave Himself! (though not of Cerebus)... we hereby nominate him in honor of all the CerebusTV shows he did about everyone else.
Charlie Brown Pitcher vote for Margaret (that's 3)
I will always vote for the divine Ms. M, no matter what she runs for. She's the queen bee, but will never be(e) a Cirinist.
And, that's why I love her.
BTW, Dave, it being from the French, meaning "to sort", it's pronounced:
tree-ahj
Or, as my American Heritage dictionary has it:
tre-azh.
Hope that helps. That's me, Dictionary Lad, signing off.
Bye-bye, and buy bonds!
I vote for whatever option gets Matt Dow an Award.
...'cause I'm Matt Dow. And I approve this message.
I'll go all in with family and character votes for Cerebus Fangirl.
So many choices! I guess I'll give the Charlie Brown (3 votes) to George Peter Gatiss. No disrespect to any of the other candidates, so many of you are also deserving.
What's the motto of the Toronto Maple Leafs? "There's always next year"
However many votes I can cast, I cast for the Divine Margaret L.
