Hilarious and Brutal: Romney kills at the annual Alfred E. Smith Dinner

Fox News repost ^ | 10-18-2012

[Stonewall Jackson]

Loved it. He not only got some sharp jabs in on Obama, but also on the media.

[One Name]

The news is all good today! RCP has Romney leading the Electoral Vote. The "Swing States" have largely swung and blue states are now "swinging". obama money, pollsters and operatives are retrenching around previously solid blue territory. There was no bounce from Biden or the last Presidential debate for obama. Momentum was all Romney before this dinner; Romney filleted him while Libya, Fast and Furious, all continue to implode. Don't wan't to get cocky, but it's almost A PERFECT STORM!

Thanks for the ping to the zings! Well done, President Romney!

[krunkygirl]

For those of us without TV, thanks very much-—very pointed and very funny! I did now hear Obama speak.

[RetAF_fedUP]

OMG! DM would eviscerate the pedestrian hack media goobers and send lib talking heads into a fetal position.

Good golly, I just got a tingle!

Hilarious, yet biting and hard-hitting humor. I can’t say enough about Romney’s poise and delivery....truly a fantastic speaker! Loved the Big Bird comments, by the way...

[Graewoulf]

BUMP!

[Mountain Mary]

Probably helping the kids with their homework. Oh wait. Marion Robinson does that 24/7. So ...I repeat. “WHERE WAS AUNT EDNA TONIGHT?”

[krunkygirl]

Whoops-—”now “ equals “not “

[bcsco]

There won’t be 70 million people watching. It’s Monday Night Football. Who want’s to watch a final debate for an election already decided?

[arasina]

Obama was enraged. The constant sipping of coffee told that tale. I’m no body language expert, but that is done to distract and mask anger or nervousness.

One does not criticize the boy king, even in jest! Obama is not able to laugh at himself.

A ready made political TV ad.

He has shown the other side he has the grace of King David but ready to defend what is right.

[The Citizen Soldier]

You have just given a concise review of the movie “2016” whether you realize it or not. Perhaps the movie influenced your comments? In any event, you are right on target.

[The Shrew]

This is the finest speech I have ever heard Mitt Romney deliver. Well written. Extremely well delivered. Self-depreating, but firm, forceful and on-target and the target was Obama and the Press.

Some great lines:

Rules of fairness have to be enforced, because what other protection do we have beside the press.

I would never suggest that the press is biased. They have their job to do and I have my job to do. My job is to lay out a positive vision for the country. Their job is to make sure no one ever hears about it.

It's the first time I've been truly impressed by Romney.

Great showing.

The weirdest thing Obumbles said all night was,

“Mitt is Romney’s middle name, I wish I could use my middle name”

I was like WTF??!!!

[American Constitutionalist]

He was as effective as Sarah Palin and Ann Coulter all wrapped up in one.

[Biggirl]

Good job Gov. Mitt!

[Conservative4Ever]

Brilliant!!!

" Don't wan't to get cocky "

Relief is not being cocky, yes, I know this country has a long road ahead to recovery.... but, our country has gone through tuff times before and if all of us join in and pray, work hard, collectively with God's help hopefully this country might have a bright future.

[Conservative4Ever]

I do believe you are right...the jokes have that Dennis Miller touch. Brilliant and beautiful.
