You are right. Very analytical.
The swirling clouds behind Christie are giving me vertigo!
Loved the song as they exited the stage.
Christie talking about being a NJ Republican....moves on to his family. Describes how both his mom and dad came from nothing, worked very hard to suceed.
Gov. Chris Christie up next.
I agree 100%.
What a pleasure it would be to see an attractive all American woman as First lady again.
I wasn’t planning on watching the convention at all since though I like politics, for some reason I hate political events.
But man, glad I turned in to see Ann’s speech. That was INCREDIBLE. Her speech was spot-on in every possible way. Wow. GET THAT WOMAN FRONT AND CENTER ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL.
She would even get liberal Dem women to vote Mitt. Damn she is good.
God bless you too and thank you for this post.
Ha! thought I had one too many glasses of wine tonight..
I think her speech will go down as one of the classics.
“There are times inyour life when you have to chose between being loved and being respected” - Christie quoting his Mom
Thank goodness they’re there. A couple were itching for arguments here.
If this was the Democrat convention, I’d go looking for the Choom Gang :-)
She needs to get out there....she could easily turn this election around!
Just wow.
She comes out georgeous (a grandmother many times over)
She’s giggling and bubbly.
She’s as serious as a heart attack.
She lays it down with conviction.
She pulled more than a few tears.
What dynamics
ANN ROMNEY FOR PRESIDENT!
Yes, she was a bit off at the start but then did very well.
LOL. Just listen and don’t watch!
“it’s easier to said Yes than no, when No is what is needed”
“tonite we are going to choose respect over love”
Chris Chistie
Talking about choosing respect over love in relationships, in leadership, in our political choices.
Principles need to be rooted to stand the test of time...our leaders today seem to be more concerned about being popular.
Tonight we say enough.
