Tampa: Romney official


On the first full night of the Republican National Convention, with 2,286 delegates and 2,125 alternate delegates attending from all 50 states, the District of Columbia and five territories. Willard Mitt Romney has just officially became the party’s nominee for the presidency.

With Romney as the official winner of the hard-fought, zanily disastrous campaign, the Republican Party has finally found its standard-bearer, its exemplar: a candidate as philosophically elitist and thematically amorphous as the party itself.

And with him trying to reverse course after seven or eight months in the GOP red-meat express lane, the job’s now formally his own: the task of establishing a single, clarifying vision not just for his campaign, but for the party he now leads.
