Notes from VP Candidate Paul Ryan event at The Villages in Florida (POWERFUL!)
Fox News' Greta Wire ^ | August 18, 2012 | Greta Van Susteren and Joy Lin

Posted on 08/18/2012 1:16:44 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

There were approximately 3000 people immediately here in the square, reporters noted there were more people at the events Palin and Gingrich held at The Villages. I’m told about 5K people were in the crowd when Romney spoke but I wasn’t here and can’t provide a comparison. One official told a reporter said there were 10K total today, outside the clean area, but we’re skeptical about that estimate.

Here is a slightly tweaked version of the Medicare verbate I sent out earlier.

**10:33:35 AM Like a lot of Americans, when I think about Medicare it’s not just a program, its not just a bunch of numbers, it’s what my mom relies on, it’s what my grandma had.

10:33:56 We had a rule in Wisconsin. It’s kind of an unwritten rule:

you turn 65; you have to go south for the winter. We call them ‘snow

birds’. My mom is a snow bird. She is a Florida resident, and she

lives over by Ft. Lauderdale, and she like so many people here, she

comes down here for the winter—just like so many folks from all over

the country do. You know, my grandma moved in with us—with my mom and

me—when I was in high school. She had advanced Alzheimer’s. My mom and I were her two primary caregivers. You learn a lot about life; you

learn a lot about your elderly seniors in your family; you learn a lot

about Alzheimer’s. Medicare was there for our family, for my grandma,

when we needed it then; and Medicare is there for my mom while she

needs it now, and we have to keep that guarantee.

Willard wouldnt let anything Conservative Paul says stand if it didnt line up with his liberal program...

The moment Willard got elected he would throw Paul under the bus along with te seniors...

Does RomneyCare include death panels or will Willard swipe them from Obamacare ???

Willard fools himself those crowds at Pauls rallies are a mandate on his own popularity...

Wheres the cheering for %50 abortions, under age abortions, gay marriage, gays in the military, gay Boy Scout leaders..

I’m no fan of Romney, but he’s actually been advocating to restore the $700M Obama swiped from Medicare, whereas Ryan’s budget would just move on from what Obama has done.

From repealing Obamacare, which is where it went. Again, I’m no fan of Romney either—I just think you’re picking the wrong fight.

I’m more upset that he wants to replace Obamacare with 50 statewide versions of Romneycare.

Yeah...

REPEAL and REPLACE...

Repeal ObamaCare
Replace with RomneyCare

Im also concerned about what he means when he says RESTORE...

that sure doesnt mean anything virtuous...

He was the one who has been pro-abortion doe 40 years

he was the one who signed for $50 abortions making the Christian tax payers pay for them ...

he was the one who brought gay marriage into the country...

He was one of those who wanted gays in the military...

he was one of those who had sanctuary cities for illegal aleins and wouyldnt allow the police to arrest them

he was one who was pushing for the AMNESTTY Bill...

So what else is there ???

What does his restoring entail ???

Theres nothing among the wrongs we have right now that Willard didnt cheer lead for...

I see you received today's Democrat Talking Points. How much is the Obama campaign paying you to disrupt these threads anyway?
