I have read all week that Romney's speech needed to be a "game changer" or a "reintroduction" or whatever. Sadly, I missed it. I was busy playing with our kitten and the time just flew by. I am sure I will be kicking myself for weeks.
Anyway, was it a game changer? Did he soar with the eagles? Did he inspire a nation to believe again? Did he win the hearts and minds of the common man? Did the Statue of Liberty climax at the end?
Or should I go back to throwing fake mice to my cat?

(3,173 posts)Inserted at the last minute were some asides about the need for "backbone" in U.S. foreign policy. I think he was referring to getting tough with Iran and Russia, but he didn't spell it out in great detail. He wants a U.S. military so powerful that nobody will even think of challenging us.
It wasn't a great speech but it had all the applause lines you'd expect. He's far too earnest to be taken seriously - he's as stiff as a board. The Republicans have shot themselves in the foot by nominating such a square.
You didn't miss anything. You and the cat had fun.

Now picture it with an awkward grin promising to start several wars.
Okay, you are up to speed!
