Here is complete video of Gov. Mitt Romney, introduced by Gov. Nikki Haley, speaking today at CPAC 2013. Romney said he remains hopeful and optimistic about the future of America because of the people of this nation. But he warned it is not a given America will remain the “preeminent power in the world.” It will require Americans to act in order to keep America the greatest nation on earth. Romney said it is essential for the United States to remain the preeminent power because none of the other nations that could assume that role believe in Freedom.
Romney urged conservatives to “learn from my mistakes,” and move forward to win elections in the days ahead to take back America, win the White House and win back the U.S. Senate. Romney said, “I’m sorry I won’t be your President, but I will be your co-worker, and I’ll work shoulder to shoulder beside you.”
He did not run a very good campaign in the end, but Mitt Romney is a good man, and America is much the poorer – in multiple ways – for having Barack Obama in the White House instead of him.

The Breitbart News Network crew didn’t get a big enough room. Actually, let’s rephrase that: They didn’t get enough rooms.
It’s the first Conservative Political Action Conference since the death of Andrew Breitbart, the street-thespian media-wunderkind of the Right whose infatuation with journalism and pop culture made him a bit of a god in some circles. He died shortly before finishing work on Occupy Unmasked, the documentary that would be his swan song.
There’s a showing of the film at CPAC that fills three partitioned rooms in the Gaylord Hotel to standing room only. The film isn’t shy about the violence of the Occupy movement, and the documentary’s creators don’t hesitate to describe their goals using belligerent language. Breitbart’s admirers use the hashtag #War to identify themselves on Twitter, and they’re outspoken about fighting every iteration of the radical Left.
Breitbart found his way to the middle of just about every major political-media episode of the last few years: ACORN, Weinergate, Occupy — he was ubiquitous. Sometimes, it seems like everyone who knew Breitbart thought he was either Jesus or Satan; it was almost impossible to feel lukewarm…
