Marco Rubio Speech: Mitt Romney Knows What Makes America Great

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TAMPA, Fla. — Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida says Mitt Romney knows what makes America exceptional.

Rubio told the GOP convention Thursday night that Romney understands prosperity doesn't happen because the government spends more money, that it happens because people use their own money to open businesses.

Rubio says the problem with President Barack Obama isn't that he's a bad person – it's that he's a bad president who favors tired ideas like big government.

The first-term senator and Cuban-American is a rising GOP star and a tea party favorite. He was reported to be among Romney's running mate choices.

Republicans hope Rubio can boost Romney, who is having a tough time winning over Latino voters.

Rubio introduced Romney as the former Massachusetts governor prepared to formally accept his party's presidential nomination.

Mitt Romney Convention Video: RNC Features Moving Biography Ahead Of Candidate's Speech

Republican National Convention planners picked an interesting time to feature one of the most touching moments of the night, and perhaps week.

About an hour ahead of Mitt Romney's appearance on the RNC stage on Thursday night, a biographic video of the GOP presidential candidate's life aired, eliciting powerful reactions from observers both in the arena and out. The lengthy film included footage of Romney with his father, former Michigan Governor George Romney, and other members of his family. It covered the struggles Romney and his wife, Ann, went through after she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. It even covered his work with the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. The sentimental production effectively topped off a weeklong effort to humanize Romney and portray him as a devoted and sensitive man.

But then Clint Eastwood, the "secret guest" of the night, temporarily erased all memory of the film, taking the stage to deliver an entirely bizarre, off-the-cuff performance in which he talked to an "invisible" President Barack Obama seated next to him.

Ann Romney, Janna Ryan Shine At Republican National Convention 2012 (PHOTOS, POLL)

Ann Romney and Janna Ryan, the potential FLOTUS and SLOTUS respectively, struck two very different ensembles at Thursday night's Republican National Convention, where Mitt Romney finally accepted the nomination to be the Republican candidate for president.

Mrs. Romney, fresh off her own RNC speech for which she wore a dazzling Oscar de la Renta red dress, opted for another vibrant hue: robin's egg blue, in the form of a sleeveless dress, gold bangles, nude heels and (bold!) a sparkly spider brooch.

Janna Ryan, on the other hand, eschewed color in favor of a black sleeveless dress with a keyhole neckline and white piping and black pumps. On Wednesday, she wore an emerald green frock from Talbots.

We couldn't help but notice: both looks are faves of current FLOTUS Michelle Obama, who has well-documented proclivities for both blue and monochrome. (Mrs. O wore red and black for her family's big night back in 2008.)

But back to the Republican ladies: who looked better? Compare below!
