The convention is turning into a live vacation slide show. But bless their hearts anyway.
LOL
Mitt Romney has a good heart...
Did BOR already show his blockbuster interview with McCain?
Good story!
The woman is a good speaker people will listen to her.
Yes, it actually is.
How sad these people lost their son.
We had a 16 year old kid in our town die yesterday.
Got hit by a car riding his bike. So sad.
This story is too long.....I hate scripts..
Do you really believe that Romney would allow Gingrich to upstage him by "being Newt" and "speaking his mind" and presenting actual ideas, instead of neutralizing ("neutering") him by inviting him and Callista to speak at the convention with prepared / pre-approved script which was designed to extoll Romney and his unspecified "plans" for all the country's ills?
This is the part of Romney's "Keep you friends close and your enemies closer" that was designed to marginalize and compromise his Republican / Tea Party / social conservatives "enemies" and potential opposition to his agenda if he becomes president.
This convention is controlled by Romney and GOP-e. This was not Newt's speech, it was part of Romney's plan to marginalize and get people disappointed in Newt! Just part deux of "Kill Newt" in Florida.
If you saw Callista "reading" the script - she was! If you saw Newt who would rather be somewhere else than "reading" the script and was looking to wrap up the speech and get off the stage - he was!
It's really that simple...
YOu can bet your arse there are NO stories like this about Obammy!!
Heartbreaking story, but heartwarming too.
Death of that little boy.
How true.
Well it’s simply BORING.
LOL! You got that right!
Particularly from his OWN BROTHER.
