She's not elected.
We had a much bigger problem with Hillary Clinton. Visiting foreign countries, pledging US TAXPAYER DOLLARS in foreign aid!
If they're not holding public office they shouldn't be speaking.
I couldn't care less what Ann Romney has to say either.
We need to put up a bunch of signs in Washington like stop signs only saying "STFU"

I thought it was great. She made a great case for voting for her husband.

Agreed. She and the others are told exactly what to say anyway.

Popeye,

Welcome back! You're being succinct, as usual. Women are actually speaking at the NATIONAL conventions, imagine that!!

Any speaker at the convention has something to say.

When did the First Ladies/candidate wives start speaking at the conventions, anyone know??

Interesting perspective....so only elected folks should have anything to say ?
What office do you hold ?

Good speech, well delivered, swung 0 votes. It was government, government, government and that isnt the message the undecided are going to buy.

It was... Expected... Nothing new, nothing special, and about as bland as Ann Romney's.

Really? I didnt think either was bland. They were both well delivered and heartfelt. AR's was more important, because nobody knew her, and many only knew the Jon Stewart caricature of Mitt, and she succeeded in raising both of their profiles.

I do. And the hundreds of millions of Americans that help make this nation a great place to live! As it is a grand example of the 1st Amendment in action. You against an American practicing their right to freedom of speech?

She's not elected.

Nor is Mr. Mitt Romney last I checked. But he too got to speak at a convention last week in Tampa, Florida. In fact, nor is Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Mr. Romney's wife, any of the folks on FOX news, all 100% of the conservative talk radio shows that dot the nation from coast to coast. But yet, we....STILL....allow them a freedom of speech even though they should be given permanent gags.

Last I checked, US Citizens can visit most countries around the world. Her job is one that requires her to travel and represent the USA to other countries. If you have a problem with that, to bad; she was given the post after sixty-eight million Americans voted her boss in the White House in 2008. There are quite a pile of Republicans that pledge federal dollars in foreign aid both in recent and the distant past. BTW, once you pay your taxes, the money isnt yours anymore, its the Federal Goverment's. What it does with it, is determined by tens of millions of Americans every single day of the year.

See the material above on why this sentence of yours is just.....wrong.

Than why read a forum thread on the subject matter in the first place? Let alone make a post on it?

Are you getting so taxed, you cant put the "hut he uck p" letters on those signs?

Wolf Blitzer hit the nail on the head,She didn't hit a home run,she hit a grand slam there.
The woman is good,she didn't just give a testimonial for her husband she DELIVERED it.
She set the bar pretty high for night two and three

Edited to add...It's 2;45 A.M.....where did the night go....lol.
