You are correct. These little gnats can’t stand the fact that over the weekend Romney/Ryan consistently drew 10,000+ supporters.

Joe Biden gave a campaign speech to (gasp!) 650 people. 650.

They also, in their attempt to remain as ignorant as possible, refuse to watch the great YouTube video where Ryan takes Obama apart in 6 minutes in an Obamacare discussion.

I’m 65 and I know I am not finished learning new things. Sadly, the libs refuse to learn anything new. They are pretty much stuck where they were in their 20’s and don’t anyone try to attack them with facts!

Short....but right to the point. Thank you Romney for selecting Ryan!

Unlike mclame shackling Palin in 2008, Romney is letting Ryan loose.

Amen for that!

I think it is a brilliant, go-for-broke ad. It shows Romney has more guts than some initially gave him credit for.

If the Republican party were sane, today McCain would be radioactive. I cannot believe they're giving him a speaking role at the Republican convention.
The VP pick of Ryan is for the conservative base. The convention speakers are to fire up the base without alienating the independents who watch.

That’s being proactive not reactive

4 years ago McCain was noactive.


He treated responding to Obama like it was radioactive and wanted no part of it.

Ending Medicare as we know it... yeah, well,

“as we know it” means that it will be bankrupt in just a few years,

“as it will be” means that it will still be functional in a few years.

So, how do you want it? “as you know it” or “as it will be”?


Excellent. Hope someone see’s your summary and uses it in an Ad.

Saw it here in the Peoples Democratic Republic of Massachusettstan. I then heard screams of rage coming from two of my neighbors’ houses. Neither one was screaming in English.

This ad is playing everywhere, even in Blue states!

Romney showed courage and political smarts in choosing Ryan.
The Dems have been ambushed on the Medicare issue and are running around in a panic....playing the race card, telling outrageous lies and spinning like tops!

It’s quite entertaining to watch!

Great ad. I love the Ticket we have, since Paul Ryan is on board, and I love the way the GOP has come out swinging. No McCain wussies this time around. I'm convinced that the only way Romney/Ryan will not win is if Obama and his Chicago thugs find a way to steal this Election. I put nothing past them. But, Romney, Ryan, the GOP and the RNC know this; so, hopefully they are prepared for whatever might happen.
