Brownback Impresses at Michigan GOP Convention

(Hat tip: Students for Brownback)

A Michigan Convention report from Michigan Cooler:
The biggest surprise of the Michigan convention has to be that Senator Sam Brownback received the best reception from the convention crowd. Two major newspapers each reported this as such so please don’t chalk this statement up to the Cooler’s bias towards Sam Brownback. Yes we love him and so did the MIGOP Convention:

Here is the account from Dawson Bell of the Detroit Free Press.

It was not even close. Brownback cleaned up on Mitt Romney.

... When he was introduced the crowd gave him very solid applause. Brownback gave an excellent speech that hit all the conservative points and did so with passion. He received several standing ovations and clearly was the crowd favorite. Almost all press accounts said that his crowd reaction was tops. Brownback is going to surprise some people...
My Comments:
The account from The Detroit Free Press (linked above) had this to say:
Still, the most enthusiasm generated for a presidential hopeful at this weekend’s convention was for the speech by Brownback. He touted bedrock conservative values and earned a standing ovation for it.

More than a few of those who gave it to him though, said later they don’t think he’s got much chance of winning.
It doesn't have to be that way. As Leticia exhorted the other day, "Pray, Hope and BLOG for Brownback"!
