Congratulations to Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan for working so hard and coming so close to winning and putting our country back on track.
I'm hearing pundits say that Romney didn't articulate the conservative position well. I disagree.
He did an excellent job. He's a good man.
I'm so proud of fellow Wisconsinite Paul Ryan, for all he's done and all he'll continue to do to help our country.
Thanks to another Wisconsin son, Reince Priebus, for his efforts as RNC Chairman.
A victory was so close, but instead, more Americans voted for four more years of Obama. This is what "revenge" looks like. No hope, no change.
"President Obama promised to begin to slow the rise of the oceans and heal the planet. MY promise...is to help you and your family."
--MITT ROMNEY
"None of us have to settle for the best this administration offers, a dull, adventureless journey from one entitlement to the next, a government-planned life, a country where everything is free but us."
--PAUL RYAN
So close. Although very dispiriting, never give up.
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
