—Mitt Romney acceptance speech,
Republican convention, August 30, 2012
“But when all is said and done—when you pick up that ballot to vote—you will face the clearest choice of any time in a generation. . . .

A choice between two fundamentally different visions for the future.”

Religious freedom or “free” contraceptives? The list goes on.
