Speech Reactions

Some big-timers had positive thoughts:

#1: Laura Ingraham

She also brought in two gentleman, Father Rutler and Rabbi Lappen. Both thought Romney did a fantastic job. Father Rutler even stated Mitt sounded like George Washington!

#2: Hugh Hewitt (own words below):

…his remarks, both in delivery and substance, were lavishly praised by Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Michael Medved, and James Dobson, not to mention Mark Steyn, Fred Barnes and Charles Krauthammer -and these were just the seven people I heard on a long drive south to San Diego and then in a hotel room before leaving to post this…

…Romney’s success today has also clearly panicked Mike Huckabee who was on with Glenn Beck tonight warning that the “ruling class” in America is growing more distanced from the people –the sort of arch-populist class warfare nonsense which has never had a home in the GOP mainstream.

#3: James Dobson:

Colorado Springs, Colo. -- Focus on the Family Action founder and chairman James C. Dobson, Ph.D., issued the following statement today in response to former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney’s speech on “Faith in America”:

“Gov. Romney’s speech was a magnificent reminder of the role religious faith must play in government and public policy. His delivery was passionate and his message was inspirational. Whether it will answer all the questions and concerns of Evangelical Christian voters is yet to be determined, but the governor is to be commended for articulating the importance of our religious heritage as it relates to today.

Nice work, Mitt. This is the guy we need.
