"i read somewhere
that mitt and i
have a 'storybook marriage.'
well, in the storybooks i read,
there were never
long, rainy winter afternoons
in a house with five boys
screaming at once.
and those storybooks
never seemed to have chapters
called MS or breast cancer.
a storybook marriage?
no, not at all.
what mitt romney and i have
is a real marriage."
"[success has] . . . given us
the deep satisfaction
of being able to help others
in ways that we
could never have imagined.
this is important.
i want you to hear
what i am going to say.
mitt does not like
to talk about
how he has helped others
because he sees it as a privilege,
not a political talking point.
we are no different
than the millions of americans
who quietly help their neighbors,
their churches,
and their communities.
they don't do it
so that others
will think more of them ~
they do it
because there is no greater joy.
give and it
shall be given unto you."
"i can't tell you will happen
over the next four years.
but I can only stand here tonight,
as a wife, a mother,
a grandmother, an american,
and make you
this solemn commitment:
this man will not fail.
this man will not let us down.
this man will lift up america!"
i believe you, ann.
excellent job.

I loved her every word. She is a class act and so is Mitt. Let's get our campaigning shoes on a help him get elected!
I can't get enough of this convention. Love learning more about the "other" Romney's.
Me Too!
It was heartfelt and real, she is one of Mitt's greatest assets.
