Great speech from Santorum.

Each speaker raises the bar for the next speaker.

Ryan and his acceptance and Romney and his acceptance will have to be outstanding just to compete with these speakers tonight.

I am so loving these RNC commercials, “you didn’t build that” and “I’m not a bump in the road”. I wonder if they are being shown on any networks other than C-SPIN?

CNN CUTS CRUZ’S MIKE.

That tells you who they fear.

His words and delivery were pitch perfect!

God bless Rick Santorum and his precious family.

He’s about as thrilled with Romney as I am and likely voting for Paul Ryan too.

:)

He’s a great speaker. Very comfortable, no teleprompter that I see, the camera loves him.
