Chloe: What do you stand for?
Clark: I stand for truth, justice, and some other stuff...
Chloe: I think the man of tomorrow needs to get a platform for today.

You ran a good campaign, Pete. We had fun, we met some new people, and we have enough t-shirts to last a lifetime.

Clark

Clark: My father says you learn more about yourself when you lose.
Lex: What'd you learn?
Clark: That I'm not destined to be a politician. You need two different personalities.
Lex: You don't need to be an elected official to change the world, Clark.
Clark: Have you ever thought about getting into politics?
Lex: Someday I'd like to be president.

Clark: Chloe, not that I'm planning to, but if I ran, do you think I'd have a shot?
Chloe: Yeah, right after I'm elected head cheerleader.

Lana: I felt I had to choose between doing the right thing and being successful. Weird part is, I kind of enjoyed being underhanded.
Clark: Lana Lang, seduced by the dark side? Who woulda thunk?

Jonathan: Clark, you can quit if you want, but remember: quitting's a very hard habit to break.

Lana: That's too bad. I think you'd make a great class president.
Clark: Really?
Lana: Yeah. You're honest. People trust you. And you have this innate sense of justice. I can see it on your face how upset you get every time you think somebody's being mistreated.
Clark: You see all that in me?
Lana: Yes I do.

Chloe: "Clark Kent, Man of Tomorrow". Kind of presumptuous, don't you think?
Clark: I like it.

Okay, well I think the Man of Tomorrow needs to get a platform for today.

Chloe

Clark: That's weird, bees are notorious followers. They wouldn't desert their hive without good reason.
(Chloe gives him a look)
Clark: My mom's addicted to the Discovery Channel.

Chloe: I can't believe it only took one day for you to be compromised by the lure of popularity.
Clark: Remind me to pull your funding after I'm elected.

Lana: Yeah, that's the last step before I institute topless waitressing.
Pete: Well, here's to hoping it fails miserably.
