Dino Rossi Introduces Romney’s Son To Supporters In Tacoma

This week all Republicans in Washington are watching what is going on in Tacoma.  It is the Washington State Republican Party Convention, with delegates and supporters  gathered from all around, in part to select delegates to the party’s national convention that will be held in Tampa, Florida later this year.

Thursday evening, supporters of Mitt Romney were invited to a special reception at a nearby hotel, where they had a chance to hear from his son Josh.  But first, they were treated to an introduction by Washington Republican stalwart: Dino Rossi.

Rossi is Co-Chair of Washington’s Romney campaign.  He says that in every email he sends out, he includes the phrase “Saving the free world” because that is what it is all about.  Rossi pointed out 50,000 people turned out for Republican caucuses in March, and voted for an overwhelming Romney victory in our state.

Gingrich and Santorum campaigns are fully behind Romney, and are supporting a Romney slate of delegates for the national convention.  Rossi alluded to “Brand X” supporting another slate (a reference to Ron Paul supporters who are trying to elect delegates as well.)

Rossi states that we have a businessman running against a man who has never had a real job in his life. He elaborated saying, “I don’t consider being a community agitator for ACORN to be a real job.”  He concluded by saying he is excited about Romney running for President.
