Ron to talk to teaparty gathering - looks like it will be live streamed at CNN

[HenryKnoxFineBooks]

I feel like he's using a lot of generalities in this speech and not enough specifics. Maybe that plays well with this crowd though. He sounds like he's purposely dumbing down this speech lol

He said he'd cut a trillion the first year, and eliminate 5 cabinet positions, and he correctly named em. Seemed specific to me.

Short and sweet. I liked it.

 

[wgadget]

Good. Now I can turn it off.

 

[amabala]

He did pretty good.

10 minute speech?! He would have only been 3 minutes late if he had given just a 10 minute speech at the first event!

 

[ohgodno]

Liked it - was a good speech for the crowd.

He seems fired up - this bodes well for the debate tonight.

All they had to do was let Newt speak first at this event!

Newt is apparently late.

Get thyself over it. As an executive, Ron made an executive decision.

NEWT IS ALWAYS LATE. RON IS ALWAYS ON TIME.

The reason RON should be President and NEWT should not.

Not his best speech, in my opinion, but it wasn't bad. It was short and sweet, and specifically pointed out that the bible says we must have honest money and tied it to our current predicament, and of course referred to his followers as "the remnant" in his biblical reference. He definitely portrayed himself in the shoes of these biblical figures he spoke of, which I think made a connection. Focusing on what he would do and not bringing other candidates into his speech was probably a good choice for this audience. The crowd seemed pleased.

Looks like Newt is late again and they are having a bunch of people fill the time...

This. I remember Newt was 30 minutes late for that one town hall I attended.

Not to mention if he left the Tea Party event right after his speech, that would mean Ron only left about 5 minutes before him. Ron also gave a 10 minute speech, giving Newt 5 more minutes to travel than Ron had, and he still manages to be late.

Anyone got a tube?

What is it with Newt's wife... is that plastic hair removable? it's exactly the same every single day, week, month. The shape never changes and it never moves. Do you style it with a chisel and hammer?

So Ron did speak at the Tea Party thing?

I'm unhappy about Ron not being able to speak either but I'm not sure why people are blaming him or the campaign...
