Romney’s excellent speech (with video links)

I’ve been tough on Mitt Romney and leaned hard on his campaign to take the gloves off, get in the fighting spirit, and push back against Obama narratives.

Today in Irwin, Pennsylvania, Romney delivered.

The Right Scoop has both excerpts and full speech video clips.

Watch here.

As I noted on Twitter during the speech earlier this afternoon, Romney impressed with both the substance and the delivery of his rallying cry on behalf of individual achievement and free enterprise. He was energetic and passionate.

I believed in what he was selling: A vision for restoring American greatness and defending success.

Obama’s inability to hide his ideological contempt for entrepreneurs & individual success has helped Romney self-actualize.

If he gives this speech with the same zeal and optimism from now until November — offering a clear, unapologetic contrast to Barack Obama’s bitter politics of resentment, class warfare, and entitlement, Mitt Romney will win.

Agreed. For all Romney’s faults he is a massive improvement over Obama.

I suspect that a significant amount of resistance to him by FReepers is anti-Mormon sentiment. It is a great offense to them to have our country lead by someone they don’t think is a Christian and who they believe to be deluded. With that criteria you’d think it would be at least a wash with Obama and a point for Romney that he doesn’t hate America.

Let us think for a moment about Obama’s “You didn’t build that” statement.

As John H. Sununu (Sr.) observed this morning on Fox and Friends, that Obama looked away from his teleprompter when he made that statement. It was freed Obama deviating from the script.

Let us carry that observation a little further and speculate:

1. ) Did Obama get a tad over confident that he had already beaten Romney, let his guard down and spoken from his black, (no pun intended, as that would be racial profiling), heart?

2.) Was this statement a trial balloon for Obama’s second inaugural victory speech?

3.) Did this statement reveal why Obama’s handlers insist that Obama read THEIR canned speeches on THEIR teleprompters?

4.) Will Obama continue to add to his “Commune Amerika” Agenda in the rest of the Campaign?

BTW, IMHO # 4 has something to do with woods and bears, but I forget how it goes - - - .

Yeah..... : )

Like the way you describe Obama’s stance when Tele-a-Promting his words - if he had to think and talk at the same time, all of the time, we would have long ago heard his Marxist comments. Too bad ABC, CBS and NBC have a news blackout (or did they white out) on Obama’s newsworthy words of wisdom on Weath creation, the self employed, etc.

Thanks.

Listen to and watch Obama in a one-on-one Liberal Agenda Media interview.

Contrast that with his public speeches.

IMHO, the former is an incompetent goof off in his natural state, and the latter is his “Selling Commune Amerika’ Soros-paid job.

Notice also that he pretends to ride a pony when going up and down stairs. Might be a gimmick to get his mind to go into his robot-style speech pattern.

As you may have noticed, there is extremely tight control of avoiding another “Joe the Plumber” off the cuff chit chats with real people.

If you want to see a bumbling fool, just put Obama in a room full of Joe the plumbers, with no microphones, teleprompters or commie handlers.

Obama is very uncomfortable talking in person to non-liberals.

BTW, one of these FR threads had an article that stated that Obama flunked kindergarden. My guess is that he did not play well with others.
