House Speaker-elect David Clark. "To live a healthier lifestyle in hope that my health holds up long enough to live through health care reform!"

Salt Lake County Council member Jim Bradley. "In 2009 I will not threaten to kick another council member's butt."

Democratic Party Vice Chairman Rob Miller. Political: "To be a clear voice and better explain the opportunities President-elect Obama will be bringing to Utah residents, and to continue to remind Utahns that when you elect us (Utah Democrats) you love us. Recent examples of this include Congressman Jim Matheson, Mayor Peter Corroon." Personal: "To enjoy more sunrises and sunsets with my wife and children, to love them completely, and to make sure there is never anything left unsaid."
