• Gov. Harold R. Sims, Tennessee : In all candor, Mrs. Carey, I would find it very difficult to put the full prestige and honor of the governorship behind a crusade led by two men in a tank with a 20-year-old prostitute.

  LaDonna Carey : Governor, that's my husband and my son in that tank with that 20-year-old prostitute. If I don't have a problem with that, I fail to see why you should.

  Gov. Harold R. Sims, Tennessee : Prehaps we look at it from different perspectives.

  LaDonna Carey : Well, my perspective has about a dozen reporters from every TV and radio station, and newspaper you can think of, waiting for me to come outside and make a statement. Now, I'm either going to tell them that they have a governor that they can be proud of, who's willing to see that justice is done, no more, no less. Or, I'm going to tell them that their governor is asshole!

• Gov. Harold R. Sims, Tennessee : Are you threatening the Governor of this State with blackmail Mrs. Carey?

  LaDonna Carey : Yes sir, I am!
