Ann Romney- Mchagueni mume wangu hatawaangusha

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney swept to the Republican presidential nomination Tuesday night, praised lovingly by his wife from their national convention stage as the "man America needs" and cheered by delegates eager to propel him into the fall campaign against President Barack Obama.

 The hall erupted in cheers when Romney strolled on stage and shared a hug and kiss with his wife of more than 40 years.

 

GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney and his wife Ann appear together following her speech at the Tampa Bay Times Forum in Tampa, Fla., on the first full day of the Republican National Convention.

"This man will not fail. This man will not let us down," Mrs. Romney said in a prime-time speech that sounded at times like a heart-to-heart talk among women and at times like a testimonial to her husband's little-known softer side.

"It's the moms who always have to work harder, to make everything right," she said. 

And she vouched firmly for her husband, who lags behind Obama in surveys among women voters: "You can trust Mitt. He loves America."
