“And Mitt Romney is running for president because he knows that if we are willing to do for our children what our parents did for us, life in America can be better than it has ever been.”
“In America we CELEBRATE success, we don’t APOLOGIZE for success!”
“In America we celebrate success; we don’t apologize for success!”
“In America we celebrate success, we don’t apologize for success.”
GREAT line.
Romney mentioning STEEL DYNAMICS in Fort Wayne. Good move.
Now the MSNBC Klux Klan has to explain the WHOLE GS Steel story.
Talking about his success without apologies!
Now hitting obama ‘s failures.
“IN America we celebrate success, we don’t apologize for success!!”
Easily the best orator for a GOP Presidential candidate since Reagan.
But I trust you're keeping the Snark Tank clean for those special occasions ;)
Fear not...Mitt wants to WIN. McCain just wants to be in the DC Sunday show cocktail party circle.
Mitt is onto something.
America is about Striving.
He seems a bit befuddled...but Clint will likely be the one people talk about tomorrow....
TYVM
Romney is delivering excellently!
Romney GOING ON THE OFFENSIVE regarding Bain Capital ... AWESOME!
He’s hitting em..
He’s hitting hard!!!!
WHOA!!!! I LOVE IT.
Thank you. Great line.
Compares Obama to Carter...that’s going to sting!
Nice Carter-Obama link there.
Mitt: It’s about tomorrow’s prosperity, not about trying to redistribute today’s.
That's what I expect. Seems like we've seen it happen before.
Give Romney his due, he is giving a hell of a good speech. Optimism inspires.
That top left one looks like one of the singers from the Oak Ridge Boys LOL
Yes, great line. It needed to be said.
Absolutely correct.
The LAST thing Romney should do is get down in the gutter and attack the Kenyan personally.
People want to see if they can envision him as our President. So far, I would say he is delivering the goods.
Romney invoking Steve Jobs. Was fired at Apple but came back later to lead Apple to phenomenal success. Business is a risk. Success not always guaranteed. But the successful businessmen will overcome their failures and ultimately achieve success.
Mitt is hitting his stride now.
This is a very good speech, delivered very well.
16 cylinder motor firing on every one!
Obama is afraid of rabbits, too, I bet.
O.k. I'm with you though those of us who knew of his background believe he succeeded too well in the area of advancing socialism in America.
Arrive by helicopter, dressed as a Navy SEAL--just in case anyone forgets he killed OBL ;)
I must say he is quite handsome.
Every one of his sons look like him.
I don’t think they belong to Ann but no one wants to tell her.
Mitt will go for Baracks jugular without thinking twice. McCain was afraid to say boo to Obama.
Positive!!! “Now is the time to restore the promise that is America!”
waiting for the shining city on the hill....Stay positive.
If only W had that kind of fight in him when he was President.
Governor Romney’s wife would never say, “For the first time in my life I’m proud to be an American.” Governor Romney would never say....”you didn’t build that;” just to mention a few “sweet” phrases of the Obamas.
There is absolutely no separating of people by sex, race, religion at this convention, among these people. We are accepting of each other, and are even fairly kind to the marxists on the other side. The commies will be nasty beyond imagination.
Definitely saw it in 2000.
What really stings is Obama has CRUSHED the Middle class.
We need 534 more Ted Cruz’s, that’s for sure.
Texas is one of my favorite states. If I couldn’t live in my beloved Florida, I would live in Texas, no doubt.
I think it was just Clint acting, or performing just as he intended to perform.
I think one thing Mitt has go9ing for him isl...he has GOD on his side....Obammy has NOTHING but Marxists!
YES...now to the MEAT....! assault on oil and gas....760 billion cut to Medicare.....trillion dollar deficits....
Hi, Fudd! God bless you too.
YES...now to the MEAT....! assault on oil and gas....760 billion cut to Medicare.....trillion dollar deficits....
I’m glad Bain has been discussed so much tonight. Makes Mitt look stronger than I thought he was.
Very good speech and delivery by Mitt.
McCain speech was an embarrassment.
As far as I can decipher from the tweets, they are just offended that he is not saying he will doe out more welfare benefits. They honestly have no understanding about how creating jobs is good.
Ha ha!!! Good one, Jonny!
