Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus today announced that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will be the keynote speaker for the Republican National Convention August 27-30.

“As governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie has proven how bold Republican leadership gets results. He has fearlessly tackled his state’s most difficult challenges, while looking out for hardworking taxpayers. He is a leader of principle and conviction, and I am excited to hear him address the Republican National Convention as our keynote speaker. Governor Christie will make the case for America’s Comeback Team and will rally our party and country in support of the Romney-Ryan ticket,” said Chairman Priebus.

“It is an honor to be able to address our party and our nation in just a few short weeks. The challenges we face as a country are great and require the honesty and boldness of the Romney-Ryan team. We have an opportunity in Tampa to make clear that if we tell each other the hard truths, tackle the big problems, and make bold choices, we will see America’s comeback,” said Governor Christie.

“Chris Christie is a national leader in the Republican Party. His leadership proves how the common-sense principles of reducing spending and cutting taxes works in New Jersey and will work for America,” said Republican National Convention Chief Executive Officer William Harris.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus today announced that Florida’s U.S. Senator Marco Rubio will have the key role of introducing Mitt Romney for his speech to accept the Republican nomination for president of the United States on Thursday, August 30.

Governor Romney’s Thursday night address, which Senator Rubio will introduce, is the high point of the four-day Republican National Convention, August 27-30. The presidential nomination acceptance speech by Senator John McCain at the Republican National Convention in 2008 drew 38.9 million viewers across the country, nearly as much as the viewership of this year’s Olympics opening ceremonies and similar to the viewership of the Oscars. This year’s convention speeches will also be broadcast live online.

“Senator Marco Rubio is without a doubt one of America’s most dynamic and inspiring leaders, and I am excited to announce that he will introduce Governor Romney at the Republican National Convention,” said Chairman Priebus. “Senator Rubio is a proven leader and a man of true character, and it is fitting that he will take on such an important role at our convention in his home state. Throughout his career, he has shown true dedication to constitutional principles, fiscal responsibility and free enterprise. As the son of immigrants, he has witnessed the promise of the American Dream firsthand and has worked to secure that promise for future generations.”

“The Republican National Convention in the great state of Florida is going to be an historic event. We are excited to nominate Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan and restore great leadership to our country. Future generations of Americans depend on the hard work we will do in the weeks and months ahead, and I know that together we will be successful in changing Washington and putting leaders in place who are committed to creating more jobs and opportunities for our people,” said Senator Rubio.

“Marco Rubio symbolizes the greatness of the American dream. He is the perfect leader to introduce Mitt Romney when he accepts his nomination. We are an extraordinary country because we have fought to preserve individual liberties that are the heartbeat of opportunity and achievement. Senator Rubio has experienced this in his own life, which will help him bring tremendous focus to how Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan’s agenda will lead the way to a better tomorrow,” said Republican National Convention Chief Executive Officer William Harris.

Rubio - No Palin. This is a huge slap to the TEA Party, but because they think Rubio is TEA Party they won't see it.

Actually, Rubio left some telltale signs to follow. He altogether avoided the local tea party infrastructure while he was running against Crist. So not everyone is in the dark. They are aware of his angle. He is a Dick Cheney acolyte with more fiscal sense. That's about it.

Christie has done some good things as Governor, put Rubio is a hardcore neo-conservative in the mold of Dick Cheney. As much as I dislike Paul Ryan, I'm glad that Rubio at least didn't get the VP slot.

Well, he must definitely be banker-approved.

Am I wrong?

That is the ONLY qualification, it appears, for BOTH parties.

Shocker.

He's actually worse. A real, authentic Neoconservative. There aren't many in Washington but he nearly fulfills all the requirements.
