It was much better than I thought it was going to be.
It was a good speech. At least Romney spoke with more passion than McCain did during his acceptance speech
It was great—it did what it had to do. Now the GOP can unite and do battle with the Democrats—I think the full armor of God has been put on and the sword of truth drawn. This will be a fight that needs to be won. What Mitt started tonight was nothing short of a Crusade. Maybe Joseph Smith was right when he said a Mormon President would someday save the nation. If Mitt can do it—bring back jobs and prosperity he should have his face carved on mountain sides! Dang, he looked like a president.
I couldn’t watch it. I’m all but certain to vote for Mittens and figure the less I see of him before election day, the easier it’ll be for me to pull the lever.
Chris Matthews is feeling a tinkle, this time going down his leg.
He did well
B-. The guy is just too too precious. He tilts his head just so, his eyes sparkle his teeth gleam. He just creeps me out.
I don’t like him. If that offends you tough.
Exceeded my expectations. On a scale of 0 to 10, I give it an 8.5 or 9.0. It was REALLY good in places, Okay in others, sub par in others.
Overall delivery was good. Some of the tough parts seemed “forced” almost angry. I didn’t really mind it, but it didn’t fit with the rest of it.
Overall, quite good.
Great speech, he is a winner.
I would like to have seen a more pointed attack. I think he has it in him, but their plan anticipates the Democrats convention next week, and perhaps the thought was to hold off on some attacks until after the Democrats decamp their convention, so they will not have the specific convention megaphone to effect a response.
DREAMS OF OBAMA’S NIGHTMERE VS. ROMNEY’S REAL AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM. nuff said.
Best coherent speech since Reagan.
Was this the moment that the oceans started to rise again?
It was heart felt, honest, and upbeat. I think he's an honest and upfront man, but I'm not in favor of his overall politics. Yet he's ages above what's in office today. We have no choice. It's time to come to grips with that. Either/Or.
Nailed it in a way I never expected. It made me proud to be on the side of the aisle I am on, and I haven’t felt that for a long time.
Romney's speech was not aimed solely at the Convention delegates or at people like me who have already decided to vote for him. It was targeted at voters who might still be on the fence, or who are disillusioned with Obama and perhaps not even planning to vote. Reagan turned this country around with energized majorities that included such voters - people who now comprise much of today's solid Conservative base. I think this is a wise and winning strategy.
His speech showed clearly why need a adult and a real American to be in the put house and why the Kenyan clown was a bad choice.
I thought it was great. I got to know Romney a little better. I have more faith in him and think he will make a good President.
Speech was great, moreover the man behind it was revealed to be a great human being, a man of accomplishment who has lived his life well and successfully. What more can you ask for in a President? With Romney, there will be no “didn’t inhale”, no bimbo eruptions, no hidden secrets of everything from birth through college. Above all, he is a capitalist, and a damned good one, not some communist sympathizer whose world view includes making America a diminished nation and “spreading the wealth around”.
To those who are “creeped out” by some nuance of his appearance - well, “that’s tough” indeed. I suppose some thought Reagan’s hair was too wavy, or George Washington’s wig wasn’t powdered white enough. I mean for crying out loud!
Mitt Romney is Presidential, and showed tonight that he will be a great President.
