lol....He’s got three already...doubt he’s got time for more.

Ryan - we will not try to replace our founding principles, we will reapply our founding principles.

“We can do this.”

and the crowd goes wild!

It doesn't end with ZZ Top?

Agree. ZZ Top would have been better and you would have heard the Texans cheering all the way to Tampa.

Still, this is a masterful speech and hopefully Romney does as well tomorrow night and his speech isn't the buzz-kill that McCain's was to Palin's four years ago.

God protect this man. He will be a target. Place a hedge of protection around him.

He actually talked about FREEDOM!
