I am accepting your nomination tonight on behalf of the millions of Americans who fear they will get the pink slip - a fear I have felt as well. I may not have struggled to make a mortgage payment, but my great friends the Marriotts run many lodging facilities. I know what it's like to be an office worker because my colleagues and I used to be owners of Staples. I know people can have trouble sleeping at night because we had a stake in Sealy. I know how hard it can be to put food on the table, because we were owners of Domino's Pizza. I understand American ingenuity because we owned part of Brookstone.
Corporations are people, my friends, and I'd particularly like to thank a few very special people - Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse - for allowing me to survive the Newt Gingrich scare in South Carolina and the Rick Santorum scare in Michigan.
So let us go forth from this convention to win the White House. To those who say that we cannot win, I have a simple reply: I'll bet you 10,000 bucks.
Spot on. How disconected can candidates get from the general population? can't get much more far than Romney.

Can someone explain to me how the republicans are a viable party? America is in a giant structural deficit and the republicans dredge up some scumbags who want to cut taxes for the rich and whine about social-conservative issues.
as if the Democrats are any better
