There were a lot of reasons to vote for Obama. And a lot of reasons to vote AGAINST Romney.

The idea of four years of lip smacking was way, way up there on that list.

How could he not have gotten some guidance on that? And the false smile? And the stiff posture? He needed to take some Alexander Technique classes.

fake, like his entire campaign.

I hope this is the last we see of the guy

Your pal Obama has spent a trillion dollars per year since he's been in office. He will do the same for the next four, because this is all he has to offer...other people's money. And when that money runs out (actually it already has) what will he offer then? The only thing left is financial collapse due to crushing debt, already happening in Europe.

But at least the gay people will be able to get married!

Good work.

Why is it so important to pray for Obama? What's that gonna accomplish?

Actually, it would accomplish something.

Just like meditation does. Slows things down, puts things in perspective. Changes the mind -- from anger at losing the Presidency to some sort of acceptance.

Morgan Spurlock did a series on TV, where people would agree to go live for 30 days with folks who they hated without knowing. There was one episode where a Southern Christian man who hated Muslims agreed to spend 30 days with a young Muslim family who observed the praying five times a day thing. Terms of the deal was he had to pray, too.

What struck me most was how that praying changed this Christian fellow. They would get into heated debates, getting wound up, but then it would have to stop for the praying. And the tension would get diffused. Because a moment of calm was enforced.

And that is what I hear here. Romney is telling folks -- stop ranting and raving and hating, and take a moment for positive thoughts.

If everyone did that -- on both sides -- much much would be accomplished.

It's not about "god." It's about literally good intentions.

We need more good intentions.

I like that Ann Romney is his 'first' lady. In presidential terms it means one thing, in Mormon terms something else.

Hahahah this guy listing honesty as the first principle is disingenuous....

Suck it Lantern. Suck it hard.
Take it all baby.

While amusing in the context of the last four years, this was a pretty good speech.

Hey, I'm just glad the Illusion of Choice $6B Circus is over.

Did someone say "Fuck you," at 4:32? I don't know if it was at Romney or at someone else yelling.
