Romney's speech said nothing other than he's an american, vote for him.

Politics • August 2012 • Views: 1,349

Romney’s speech last night was so sparse on details that it amounted to foam - empty puff bubble promises that left the party stalwarts in a meandering unfulfilled malaise as they exited the convention. They wanted meat and instead they got “trust me” tropes and bumper stickers. The fire in Mitt’s belly turned out to be just a reflected glow from his belt buckle and instead of the expected tea, they left with bromides.

I assume that the subtext of Romney's "I'm an American" speech is "I'm not a Kenyan".

Well, it's not like he can talk about Bain, or being governor of Massachusetts and passing Romneycare. And he can't really talk about his religion. But hey, he has a family!

Unfortunately his speech was apparently good enough for one of my middle-of-the-road Tweeps who may vote for him now. Ugh. Sigh.

Don't get discouraged if Romney jumps up in the polls; that is just the expected convention bounce. We won't know the real shape of the race until a couple of weeks after the Democratic Convention when the polls settle back down.

It's just so hard to believe Romney is doing as well as he is with few policy specifics (I'm being generous here), refusing to release taxes, etc. RomneyRyan would set back gay and minority rights in this country for generations and likely decimate the New Deal income support system as well.

Empty suit and jackals. No facts but that.
