Mitt Romneys speech:
1. As well delivered a speech as Ive seen Romney give.
2. Hate, hate, hate the word humanize, but if the main purpose of the speech was to counter the Gordon Gekko, cold-hearted capitalist caricature of Romney and connect to suburban women, married women then it was probably pretty successful.

Big time.
As the poster down thread said, it was a home run over the fence.
It was a Babe Ruth home run.
The effect it had on me was it made me go from not liking him to liking him a great deal.

Excellent, great input.
The other 3 points I didn't see as having a big impact on the economy. #4 is the logical outcome if you fix the structural issues in the economy.
By the way, was it my imagination or did Rubio get tongue twisted and say we choose big government over freedom. Maybe there was a negative in his statement that I missed but it didn’t seem to flow with the rest of the speech.
Romney was not my first choice. He was not even my last choice. But, to paraphrase Rumsfeld, he’s what we got. And to be honest, Romney’s speech last night made me feel really good. Really good like I haven’t felt in a very long time.
It certainly was better than Bush I and II’s , Dole’s and McLame’s.
I am reserving all my comments about Romney for November 7.
It’s going to be hard enough to vote for him November 6, I don’t plan to make it any harder by obsessing over, well, you know, EVERYTHING.
Romney did VERY good, much better than I had expected.
I am beginning to get the ‘feeling’ (I generally don’t like that word) that Romney is going to win the election and rid us of Empty Chair Obama.
Moi aussie. It was an impressive delivery.
