"America is back! Back from the attack on our homeland — back from the attack on our economy, back from the attack on our way of life. We're back because of the perseverance, character and leadership of the 43rd President of the United States, George W. Bush. "

I think Arnold may have created some new Republicans tonight, who will vote for Bush. He did a great job.

I thought tonight was going to be the worse night of the convention, but I was blown away. Arnold did an unbelievably exceptional job. It was inspiring. I was expecting a bunch of random one-syllable words that I could barely understand, but instead, I heard a well orchestrated, passionate, clear, inspiring speech on why President Bush should be reelected. So far, my speech rankings are:
1. Rudy Guiliani
2. Arnold (I'm not even going to try)
3. Laura
4. John McCain

It has been a great convention so far and I'm really looking forward to Zell tomorrow night.

Best speech of Arnold's life. For a RINO it was impressive and this isn't the first GOP Convention he's been to but its his debut as an elected official. Now he's a national political figure.

"I'm really looking forward to Zell tomorrow night."

I am sure Zell is going to be great also.

At the RNC you can see that everyone is sincere, while at the DNC you could see everyone was trying hard to hide who they really are ( communists in moderates clothing).

Magnificent speech....but a little too fast in places.....slower would have an even greater impact.

[FairOpinion]

You were quick! This is great. It brought the house down.

Now just every time Kerry and Edwards are going to start talking about doom and gloom, someone should stand there with a sign "Economic girlie men". LOL

"...every time Kerry and Edwards are going to start talking about doom and gloom, someone should stand there with a sign "Economic girlie men".

Arno was great tonight. He's proud to be called...American.
That's what I got from his speech tonight.

Way to go Arnold!

[Kirkwood]

Really impressive as to the flow, pacing, and content. Covered many bases. Made it personal, but in a way many of us could share in his emotions and see America through his eyes. I wish more immigrants would realize that they came here because in their hearts they are Republicans. If you want to be a democrat, go to france.

Arnold on USO Tour in 2002 (click for more pictures)

Arnold truly loves and respects the military.

[justa-hairyape]

Awesome job by Arnold. Feel great about having voting for him even though he is a 'moderate'. Definitly beyond home run or grand slam. This was a game winning speech.

[NRA2BFree]

Thanks for posting this transcript. Arnold gave an amazing speech. I wish everyone could see America through his eyes. 8^)

You like our guv?

We do.

We figured out a while ago that he was more than just a pretty face.

I heard Humphrey saying things that sounded like socialism, which is what I had just left. But then I heard Nixon speak. He was talking about free enterprise, getting government off your back, lowering taxes and strengthening the military. Listening to Nixon speak sounded more like a breath of fresh air.

Best line in the whole speech. He had the croud roaring!

Plus pretty ballsy to bring up Tricky Dick - and pretty skillful to pull it off!
