Congratulations to Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan for working so hard and coming so close to winning and putting our country back on track.
I'm hearing pundits say that Romney didn't articulate the conservative position well. I disagree.
He did an excellent job. He's a good man.
I'm so proud of fellow Wisconsinite Paul Ryan, for all he's done and all he'll continue to do to help our country.
Thanks to another Wisconsin son, Reince Priebus, for his efforts as RNC Chairman.
A victory was so close, but instead, more Americans voted for four more years of Obama. This is what "revenge" looks like. No hope, no change. "President Obama promised to begin to slow the rise of the oceans and heal the planet. MY promise...is to help you and your family."
--MITT ROMNEY
"None of us have to settle for the best this administration offers, a dull, adventureless journey from one entitlement to the next, a government-planned life, a country where everything is free but us."
--PAUL RYAN
So close. Although very dispiriting, never give up. Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
--ABRAHAM LINCOLN
Obama is really getting desperate.
He shrinks a little bit with each stupid thing he says, and he's been saying A LOT of stupid things.
Reince Priebus comments:
What are the pros and cons of tonight's vice presidential debate between Paul Ryan and Joe Biden?Pro: When Ryan is introduced, he wants them to say, "Congressman Paul Ryan."
Con: When Biden is introduced, he wants them to say, "Here comes Bidey Joe Joe."
Pro: This debate will be the biggest challenge Biden has faced in his time as VP.
Con: Second to "trying to stick the straw in a Capri Sun pouch."
Pro: Hearing the moderator ask Paul Ryan why he deserves to be America's number two.
Con: Hearing Biden do his Butthead impression after hearing "number two."
Pro: Biden got some debate advice from President Obama.
Con: "Take two Ambien and then act like you don't wanna be there."
Pro: Paul Ryan takes pride in being on Team Romney.
Con: Joe Biden takes pride in being on Team Edward.
Pro: Seeing Paul Ryan say, "It's time to roll up our sleeves and put America back to work."
Con: Seeing Joe Biden say, "Who needs sleeves at all?" then tear them off like a Chippendales dancer.
Pro: RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said not to underestimate Joe Biden's debate skills.
Con: "Reince Priebus" sounds like the name of a creature from the Star Wars cantina.
Pro: Hearing Paul Ryan end his closing remarks with, "God Bless America."
Con: Hearing Joe Biden end his closing remarks with, "hashtag YOLO!"
Reince Priebus nails what Obama projected to the nation on Wednesday night.From the opening moments of the debate, Obama seemed nervous, as though he dreaded what was about to happen. I guess it was scary for him to realize that he was going to be exposed.
Next to Mitt Romney, Obama looked so tired and worn. Obama seemed deflated. As the debate wore on, it became evident that Obama was losing to Romney, because Obama has been an ineffective president.
Although Jim Lehrer, debate moderator, tried to assist the struggling Obama, this was really the first time Obama was challenged. He was called on his record as president. He was incapable of defending himself and he had no army of protectors to shield him.
The liberal media and his Democrat allies have propped up Obama for years. They've covered for him. He's never been held accountable for his failures in a tough, face to face encounter.
Mitt Romney was in control. He was confident. He knows he's capable of helping the country move in a better direction. He has experience. He can get things done. He has ideas.
Romney had a terrific command of the facts and he was able to communicate well. Off-the-cuff, he pummeled Obama with the truth. The truth, of course, is Obama's worst enemy.
Romney seemed presidential, whereas Obama looked like a hollow shell. It was amazing to see Obama, the sitting president, appear so small. Romney had all the gravitas.
This debate showed just how sheltered Obama has been.
Obama did an absolutely terrible job of connecting with the audience. He didn't connect at all. Obama spent the evening talking to Jim Lehrer and staring at the top of his podium. Was Obama doodling during most of the debate? Romney, on the other hand, talked to Obama, and looked into the camera, connecting with the viewing audience.
Romney shattered that false image Obama and his team have been shoving down the throats of Americans, that Romney is an incompetent, selfish, stiff, rich, white guy, out of touch with the people.
The ninety minutes of the debate seemed physically painful for Obama.
It was as if the weight of his failed presidency was too much for him to bear. He seemed frail and uncertain. He looked awkward and clumsy. The cool, brilliant Obama was not on that stage.
Why?
Because the cool, brilliant Obama doesn't exist.
