Mitt Romney: A bigger man than I

I found this video today of Mitt Romney speaking at the NRA convention in Louisville, Kentucky back in May of 2008. He spoke in behalf of John McCain, a few months after bowing out of the 2008 GOP Presidential primary race in support of McCain.

I can remember at the time how disappointed I was and that how I was not a fan of McCain who I felt ran a dirty campaign. I can still remember how hard it was for me to vote for him in the general election.

This post isn't about that, this is about the character of Mitt Romney who could have just as easily walked away after the primaries and left McCain to fend for himself. I know I would have. Romney didn't.

He knew what was in store for America as he points out in the following video of that speech he made at the NRA. He wanted to do everything in his power to keep Obama from winning the Presidency. I still share the vision of America he spoke of here:

    Bosman, thanks for the reminder. Romney truly is a man of character. You're not so bad yourself, though!

    Great video.

    Everything he talked about has happened.

    You're right Bos. I also had to drag myself to the poll to vote for McCain.

    Can't imagine Huck doing the same for Mitt had Mitt won the nomination.
