Am I the only one who was disappointed with Chritie’s speech?

Wasn't much of a rousing speech, but laid out the fact that we need to make hard decisions to save our country.

Tough acts to follow were Santorum, Cruz, and Mrs. Romney.

Three Doors Down was a room clearer, for sure.

Yeah for sure,when you start making comparisons between the commie we have and the “team” we will have in Nov., its not even close. That’s the bottom line.

He brings me in mind of Fiorello LaGuardia eighty years ago lobbing rhetorical fireballs at Tammany Hall. He’s part of a proud New York & New Jersey tradition: Politics as a contact sport.

I’ve often defended Juan—and generally like him. BUT—that was a rude and insulting remark, and I’m SO glad Brit Hume countered it so well!

WTC is a Saraholic. There is no hope for them. These people have Palin posters on their walls and Palin magnets on their refrigerator. It’s idolatry.

I am emailing the campaign to tell them to get Ann out there doing speeches herself. http://www.mittromney.com/forms/suggestions She needs to be out there. She will win the women vote for Mitt if she is able health-wise to do so if the campaign gets it...

BRILLIANT IDEA!!

Just got back so I missed a lot of the first stuff, but just in time to see Ann Romney. SHE us Mitt’s saving grace. The contrast between Ann and mickie the mooch couldn’t be clearer.

Juan Williams supposedly has two sons who are conservative. That's his punishment for being such a dumbkopf.

His opinion of Ann Romney was not well received by his fellow panel members. What an Obamasucker he is.

Idiot Juan Williams bashes Ann Romney. Says she came off as a “corporate wife.”. Megyn Kelly asked him that he means by that. He then basically went on to attack stay-at- home Moms. He said, “She looks like a woman who’s husband takes care of her.” Huh?

“No. Christie was affraid to attack Obama just like every other damn RINO. I hate this group.”

Yeah, I was expecting him to pound Bozo, but it never happened! They are being much to nice to that lying, thieving Kenyan! Anne Romney was spectacular! Hopefully a lot of women saw her.

I rarely watch Fox News. Reading the comments, did Jaun slam Ann Romney?
