Key bits from the Fox News report:
In a speech before the NAACP annual convention, Romney at times drew polite applause but also elicited a robust round of boos when he said he wants to eliminate the federal health care overhaul…
Romney said at the top of his speech that he doesn’t “count anybody out” and doesn’t “make a habit of presuming anyone’s support…
“The president wants to make this campaign about blaming the rich, and I want to make this campaign about helping the middle class in America,” Romney said…
“Many barriers remain. Old inequities persist. In some ways, the challenges are even more complicated than before,” he said. “If equal opportunity in America were an accomplished fact, then a chronically bad economy would be equally bad for everyone. Instead, it’s worse for African Americans in almost every way.”
More like this, please.
UPDATE: Romney received a standing-O at the end of his speech. That ought to be the headline.
