Romney did talk about
* 70% poverty associated the single parent vs 98% success of those who waited till after 21 to start a family
*loss of the family structure
*poor schools
*roadblocks by teacher unions
* problems attracting free enterprise into black neighborhood
(I thought he had a good line (paraphrasing) “Nobody every complained that we have too much free enterprise, too many businesses, too many jobs in a neighborhood,”
*bad effects of government spending
*job growth barrier caused by ‘ombacare’
* failure of Obama’s job performance to match his words
*failure of Obama to campaign on issues
All in all a good performance.
An appeal to people of good will to look for the good of the country over politics and color.
Would I trust Romney to act as he has been speaking these past few months? NO. Do I trust any politician. Mostly no.
I do trust my own good eye though. That eye tells me that Obama will continue to do more and more bad things for us.

I’m not surprised you haven’t gotten a response from atc23. His premise is absurd. The talk was excellent and your summary is spot on. Romney actually sounded Reaganesque.

When you’re speaking to a bunch of race mongers you’re on enemy territory. He walked the minefield by telling the truth and sticking to the facts. If Romney brings the fight hard to black voters he may turn enough back into Republicans. That would be great.
