I would have loved him to quote his Outlaw Josey Wales speech:
Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you’re not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. ‘Cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live nor win.
Asking why people who voted for BO were more excited on Election Day 2008 than they are now.
He got choked up there for a minute. Have you ever seen Barry show real sentiment?
I would swear he just stole a Dean Martin joke!!
“Jobs to him (Obama) are about government.” (no kidding)
Boring? Oh well you can’t please ‘em all I guess.
I don’t think he’s a red meat kinda guy...
He just hit ‘Bummer....feeling better?
Romney getting to the red meat. Obama never had any experience at business.
I’m sure you’re an expert but you leave the “red meat” speeches for the underlings. A Presidential nominee should come across, above all, pragmatic.
Only my opinion as I’m not the expert that you are.
Everyone loved Dino.
He mentions the “b word”, Bain!
#BETRNC disgronification is hilarious...
It’s not a question of what I want. I don’t care what he says because he already has my vote. (I’d vote for the neighbors’ Golden Retriever, at this point.) The question is, is this speech calibrated to rouse the troops and sway those who are sitting on the fence? Red meat would not do it. He has to persuade people that he’s not a store mannikin, he’s not fake, he’s not a robot. This is the speech that was necessary to show the human side.
Relax, Romney will gut Obama through media buys just like he gutted Newt. All in good time.
This speech is a master class in politics.
I’ve tried to like Romeny. I just can’t.
He remains gross and fake.
Shame as I hate Obama and like Ryan.
Do Mormons believe in Hell??????
