[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Michelle's speech was good.

Its natural to compare Michelle's speech to Ann's because were all going to to it with their husbands but the petty insults are absurd.

[b]Ann Romney made a fine speech and held her own [/b]and I think though that Michelle hit a chord with some people that made hers a bit better.

At the end of the day, neither lady is going to make policy so there is no need for all this back and forth[/quote]

Ann Romney's speech was completely forgettable. Michelle's speech was illustrative about her husband, while Ann's was merely filled with adjectives, not examples. I am really surprised Ann'e speechwriters did not do a better job for her. It is really Speech 101. The only thing I remember from Ann's speech was when she shouted " I love women!", which was cheesy.[/quote][b]I thought Romney had some good lines[/b], but the "I love you women!" line was forced and awkward and uncomfortable.[/quote]

Were they truthful?[/quote]Oh I wasn't gauging them based on that, sadly. But I really liked her line about having a "real marriage" instead of a storybook marriage. And her line about how you may not agree with my husband politically but he will fight for you everyday.  I was thinking more about what sounded authentic and emotionally appealing, which is how I evaluate these kind of speeches.  No way I'm voting for her husband but I try to listen with an open mind to the speeches and I'm always interested in whether the speaker is effective at "grabbing" the listener, regardless of their politics.[/quote]
