Ed Koch on agreeing with a politican on all issues

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

Ed Koch yesterday on NY1 repeated his old saying about one-issue candidates  
and agreeing with a politician on most or all of the issues. Does it show up  
earlier in Factiva? Search for Ed Koch and "see a psychiatrist" or "have your  
head examined."
...
Koch's comments were about the one-issue Connecticut senate race. (The  
one-issue candidate won.)

There’s a quote from former New York City mayor Ed Koch that begins Joe  Klein
’s latest book: “If you agree with me on nine out of 12 issues, vote for  
me. If you agree with me on 12 out of 12 issues, see a psychiatrist.”

A line that Ed Koch often used in his campaigns is,  "If you agree with me on 
nine out of twelve issues, vote for me.  If you  agree with me on twelve out 
of twelve, see a psychiatrist."  When you make  a choice, think of what he 
said.  And remember that you can change your  mind until you pull the lever.

I like this Ed Koch  quote: “If you agree with me on nine out of 12 issues, 
vote for me. If you agree  with me on 12 out of 12 issues, see a psychiatrist.”

25 September 1996, <i>Mountain Democrat</i> (Placerville, CA),  pg. A5:
Former New York City Mayor Ed Koch recently discussed politics on  
television. He said that if one can agree with a politician on eight out of 12  major 
issues he should vote for him or her. If one agrees with a politician on  
everything he should see a psychiatrist, obviously he is a mental case.
