Convention speeches: Ann Romney vs. Chris Christie
Vanity | 8/28/2012 | The Rhinelander

Posted on 08/28/2012 8:30:43 PM PDT by TheRhinelander

The buzz is that Ann Romney's speech was off the charts and that Chris Christie's speech was moderately good but didn't have the red meat people wanted. I tend to disagree. Christie's speech was fantastic but in a much more subtle way. He showed the stark differences. Thoughts?

I don’t think Christie changed one vote. I think Ann Romney may change many votes.

The GI bill was paid for with blood and limbs.

A lot of the women are saying she brought tears to their eyes. They don’t know she is a pro-abortionist and so is her husband Mitt. IOW, her speech was just as much self-promoting as Christie’s. It’s all one big sham. The convention is a giant, white washed tomb with lots of dead bodies rotting within.

She probably meant Barry and Mickey.

Funny though, especially how even Meghan Kelly made it clear that Juan Williams could eat S#!t and die for that remark.

I’d call him a useful idiot, but I think his usefulness has run out for the left. Poor Juan, he loses the left by taking money from Fox News, and he loses us just because he’s a friggin’ dolt.

In her world view the only “Real Marriages” are ones sealed in a Mormon temple.

I thought Ann Romney was wonderful. She did her husband proud and will make a terrific First Lady. Gov Christie was fired up. I thought he did a great job but was a little distracted when he was obviously looking at the teleprompter. Sometimes I wish we would just go back to 3x5 cards, but I'm old.

Christie set the stage for the nominees to tackle the big issues.

He reassured the audience it can be done, and asked all of us to get behind the team.

Christie is the FIRST person that I have heard that made ANY mention of the sacrifice it’s going to take to get the nation’s problems solved. He’s RIGHT...and it’s refreshing to hear the truth.

Ann Romney’s theme in her speech was such a bunch of woman worshiping, pandering BS, that it makes it impossible to take her POTUS seeking husband serious. I thought he was a pretty serious guy until I heard that dribble. Bring on the Bill Cosby sitcom where dad is a... well, I’ll start with this commentary...

I just don't see Mitt being worse than Barry in any way!!!

I would feel a lot safer with Mitt in the Oval Office!!!!!

And I cannot imagine Mitt Romney with his feet propped up on WH furniture!

The GI bill WAS a good thing. It gave service men a chance to get an education and it gave America the most productive and educated workforce in the twentieth century.

The Scholarship program is just that AN earned program for the top 25% of high school graduates in the state, regardless of economic circumstances. Educating the brightest IS A GOOD IDEA.

Here’s a fact: nobody pays attention to those who talk to themselves.
