Romney: Obama Gave A ‘Superb Address’ At Boston Bombing Memorial

TOM KLUDT 6:20 PM EDT, THURSDAY APRIL 18, 2013

Former Massachusetts governor and 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney said Thursday that he was impressed with the remarks delievered by President Barack Obama at an interfaith service held the same day for victims of the Boston Marathon bombings, saying his erstwhile rival "gave a superb address."

"It was a coming together," Romney, who attended the service, told CNN's Wolf Blitzer. "I must admit, I was also very impressed with the words of the mayor, Mayor [Thomas] Menino, with our governor, Governor Deval Patrick, and the President. I think the President gave a superb address to the people of this city and this state and the nation. It was an inspiring day."

Romney told Blitzer that he was unable to speak to Obama at the service.

Grow up, folks chewing Romney's carpet.

When a foe of ours helps unite a city that is wounded, it is a positive all the same. Accept it as a good thing, if you have any compassion for the people of the state that elected him as governor.
