PITTSBURGH – Mitt Romney’s campaign always makes his arrivals in various cities known to the local media, and in turn the public, but never before has a crowd of this size shown up to greet him.

That’s my City!!!!
Now let’s seal the deal!!!
Warning - you’ll need tissues for this one.
Watch the video if you think the picture is moving.
Look at that distance, and the noise was deafening.
They described it as a few hundred people. LOL
Dream on Lefties...
LOL! (I live in little Washington)
:o)
I am so emotional about this today! This brought me to tears, too! I told my husband I can’t believe that he would say this if he didn’t have extremely positive internals. You just don’t say such things unless they are true!
There. I enhanced your very true and heartening statement for you... :)
Tears in your eyes ping!
Bunch of clingers..:)
We had some champagne left from our 50th anniversary party.
My wife put it on ice last night. I pray we get to use it.
I was going to the airport to see him in Pittsburgh today, but they said it was closed to the public. That is what makes this even more amazing!
Totally choked up and overly emotional right now. Just praying and trying to stay calm!
