Condi did REALLY well...and I’m not one of her greatest fans. Very convincing - I really liked her contrasts.
You should see her shoot.
She is exceptional.
Ahhhh Yes!
Martinez is a very good speaker too. I had not heard her before.
Carried a S&W .357 magnum. Woo hoo!
Condi was outstanding tonight - someone who could combine some intellectual chops with some rousing emotion...
But no way is she the right choice for VP.
Martinez not up to the task of following Condi.
Susan Martinez - all I heard was she carries a 357 Magnum now...what was that about? Maybe it doesn’t matter...the crowd cheers,, YEAH!
When you love this great country it shines through your words!
That really cracked me up!!! Love it!
None of the “Big Three” are covering this speech. Disgraceful! Shame on them!
Amen. I hope she does.
And has anyone noticed that nearly all of the Republican speakers have a family business/small business background?
Obama hasn’t even seen the inside of a corner lemonade stand!
Condi has a certain level of class that has been mia a lot so far,Ann had it as well.
I do hope that Condi eventually runs for POTUS cause she would have my vote
Rut Roh
Did she just say she carried a .357 at age 18? That’s legal in New Mexico?
Your Governor Susana Martinez ROCKS!
Fox is the only one running these great speeches. It’s terrible what this disgusting media is doing.
She’s right,its a great open for us as well. The rats hate choice of schools for anyone,except their own.
Media is really showing their racism this week.
She DID bring me to tears. She was absolutely amazing. She nailed Obama to the wall on all counts while still making us all proud to be Americans. She actually gave me hope for the future.
Thank you for that...I always loved W and always will. He is a good man..the best of the Bushes without a doubt.
