if you felt that excitement when you voted for barack obama, shouldn't you feel that way now that he's president obama?

you know there's something wrong with the kind of job he's done as president when the best feeling you had was the day you voted for him

summary of romney's sentiments:

families expected they could get back even, maybe even a little ahead, do more for their elderly mom living alone, every small biz hoped to expand, to hire, every new grad looked forward to a future of hope with the bright prospect of starting successful lives...

americans expected we'd by paying down debt and making health care better and more affordable and protecting our pensions and retirements...

that's the hope and change america voted for...

and you deserved it cuz you worked harder, when it took 50 bucks to fill the tank you cut out movies, when you lost the $25 per hour job with benefits you took the two $9 jobs with none...

but when the second job only left you further behind and the real estate agent said to sell your home would cost you all, you knew something wasn't right...

but what could you do, except work more and keep hoping...


i wish president obama had succeeded because i want america to succeed...

when the world needs really big stuff, you need an american, like neil armstrong whose american flag is still on the moon, god bless neil armstrong...

if every child could drift to sleep feeling wrapped in mom's arms and god's love, this world would be a far more gentle and peaceful place...

as MA gub i chose a woman lieutenant gub, a woman chief of staff, half of my cabinet and senior officials were women, and in business, I mentored and promoted great women leaders who ran great co's...

i grew up in detroit and loved cars, wanted to be a car guy like dad, but i knew i had to go out on my own...


i knew ann's job as mom was harder than mine and more important than mine...


i started bain, age 37, which has become a great american success story...

we started staples where the obama campaign shops...

sports authority which my boys loved...

learning center bright horizons which michelle praised...

when everyone thought steel was dead we built a plant in an indiana cornfield, dyanmics steel is today america's leader...

we took a chance...

these and many others are american success stories, yet the centerpiece of the president's campaign is attacking success, is it any wonder we're in the worst economic recovery since the great depression...

we celebrate success, don't apologize for it...

obama didn't disappoint cuz he wanted to but cuz he doesn't know any better, he lacks the basic qualification, experience in biz, to him jobs are all about govt...

sometimes we failed at bain, the president doesn't understand that success in biz involves risk...

steve jobs was fired at apple before he changed the world...

it's the genius of the american free enterprise system---to harness the creativity and talent and industry of the people with a system dedicated to creating tomorrow's prosperity rather than trying to redistribute today's...

every president since the depression has been able to tell the american people you're better off---except jimmy carter and this president...

he asks us to be patient, he tells us it's someone else's fault, give him 4 more years to get it right...

time to put aside divisions and recriminations...

many americans have given up on the president but not on themselves, their neighbors or america...

what we need is not complicated or profound, doesn't require a special commission...

we need jobs, lots of jobs...

middle class crushed, incomes down $4000, premiums up, food prices, utilities, gas doubled...

one in six in poverty...

his policies don't create jobs, they depress them, raise taxes on small biz and you'll get less jobs...

assault on coal, gas and oil pushes energy and manufacturing jobs to china...

trillion dollar sequester cuts to military---jobs and natl security...

716B cut to medicare to pay for obamacare not only hurts seniors but depresses innovation...

trillion dollar deficits restrain the economy, jobs and wages...

the majority of americans believe our best days are NOT before us, i'll tell you---if we reelect barack obama they aren't...

i have a plan to create 12 million jobs...

energy---coal, gas, oil, nuke and renewables...

education---every parent a choice, every child a chance...

avoid greece, cut spending, balance the budget...


women more likely to start biz than men, need a president who understands and respects what they do...

eliminate job killing regulations, repeal obamacare...

unlike president obama i will not raise taxes on middle class...

life, marriage, freedom of religion, our first freedom...

i'll start my presidency with a jobs tour, obama started with apology tour...

he said we dictated to other nations---no, we liberated them from dictators...

threw israel under the bus so he could, as he said in his first tv interview, talk to iran, we're still talking, they're still nuking...

abandoned poland by unilaterally pulling sdi, his reset failed, he looks for more flexibility with russia after the election...

my white house---more loyalty and backbone...

not only tax and spend, but borrow from china and tax and spend...

unite, end resentment and division...

if elected president i pledge my soul and energy to restore that america that looked to better future, for kids, grandkids, it's waiting for us...
