Thought we needed this.

[untwist]

Uh oh. Ryan stands no chance. He obviously doesn’t know how to use a teleprompter.

[Miss Didi]

Fabulous introduction...the military setting, music, flags and cheering of the Comeback Team! Got chills and teary-eyed.

[TomGuy]

Romney introduced Ryan as “the next President”.

Works for me. lol

Ryan just said Romney would be.

[penelopesire]

Ryan always reminds me of Jimmy Stewart in that famous movie (can’t think of it now...not enough coffee yet). I have had a political crush on him for a long time...lol.

[bjcoop]

Obama did the same thing at one point in 2008 though.

[americas.best.days...]

Yes, he did introduce Paul Ryan as the next POTUS, and
i take him at his word!!
YAY!!

[exit82]

I think “fopa” is the American version of “faux pas”.

[LS]

They said on FOX that while the team intended to do the "official app announcement," that word had leaked out in sufficient ways that FOX announced it a good 12 hours before.

It's just impossible to keep a secret at high levels anymore.

[bigheadfred]

LOL

[txmissy]

My misspelled version of faux pas. :o) Social blunder.

[GraceG]

I am going to confuse my liberal friends by saying this:

Because the idiot libs will think I am talking about Romney (because he is Mormon) because they never did the homework on Obama and seem to have a memory hole when it comes to ANYTHING about Obama's past.

[freemama]

Joe Biden is quaking in his boots today.

[The Chief]

I saw this on Twitter, Romney’s music when he was coming to the stage was the theme from “Air Force One”

[Arthur McGowan]

I would say that Obama will become totally unhinged by the choice of Ryan, if he weren’t already unhinged.

He hates Ryan with a hot, burning, flaming hate, because Ryan is every good thing that Obama is not.

[Excellence]

I’ll trade your chills for my hot flash.

[afraidfortherepublic]

I think the term (French) is faux pas.

[AFPhys]

This speech of Ryan is making it clear that this is a spectacular choice of VP.

The bulk of America’s population will be enthusiastic about this choice.

[TornadoAlley3]

Ryan married an Okie! (Janna Little)

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Simple to counter. Ad campaign calling him a liar.

No. Starting today, the broken record starts spinning..."Draconian cuts; Republicans want to starve your kids and grandparents; the Romney-Ryan budget cuts will hurt women, children, elderly; want to take us back to the days when we didn't have a "safety net"; balance the budget on the backs of the poor; rich aren't paying their fair share; tax cuts that will benefit only the rich; etc."

Rush played a montage of standard Democrat boilerplate responses from 1996 on Thursday. We're going to hear that nonstop from now until election day.

[LS]

Er, it was where the Battleship WISCONSIN was. Get it?
