Newscast Media TAMPA, Fla—Thursday marks the last day of the Republican National Convention in which Mitt Romney will officially accept the nomination for president. Together with his running mate Paul Ryan, the pair have named Thursday's theme: "We Believe In America."
Guest speakers for the event will include: Newt and Calista Gingrich, Speaker John Boehner, Gov. Jeb Bush, Craig Romney, Olympians, Marco Rubio, a mystery guest, music by BeBe Winans and much more.

While George W. Bush focused his campaign on protecting America, and Barack Obama on ushering in Change, the Romney-Ryan campaign is focusing on reclaiming the American dream through job creation, reducing spending and cutting the size of government while lowering taxes.
The Romney campaign has done an effective job in painting Romney as someone who loves America, with the implication that Obama feels the opposite. The patriotism is apparent in all the speeches, and we should expect to hear more about the American dream on Thursday night.

There is also a digital clock hanging on the wall as a reminder of how much debt has been accumulated in the past four years. Candidates' speeches are made available to the media, but are embargoed until after the candidates take the stage--thereafter media practitioners are free to publish the speeches. Add Comments>>
