Four years ago, Obama "dazzled us" with sweeping promises of "hope and change," Romney said.

Are you making more at your job? Do you have a better chance to get a better job? Do you pay less at the pump? Romney capped off by suggesting, "If the answer were 'yes' to those questions, then President Obama would be running for re-election based on his record, and rightly so. But because he has failed, he will run a campaign of diversions and distractions and distortions. On a night he was poised to sweep primaries in five states, after besting a crowded field of rivals, Romney said, "After 43 primaries and caucuses, many long days and not a few long nights, I can say with confidence, and gratitude, that you have given me a great honor and solemn responsibility.

And together, we are going to win on November 6th! It has been long and extraordinarily rewarding," he said. In a speech that was billed, "A Better America Begins Tonight," the former Massachusetts governor spoke poignantly about his campaign-trail encounters with everyday Americans dealing with the aftermath of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression.

A better America begins tonight. I can still hear her saying in her beautiful voice, "Why should women have any less say than men, about the great decisions facing our nation? As Governor of Massachusetts, I chose a woman Lt. Governor, a woman chief of staff, half of my cabinet and senior officials were women, and in business, I mentored and supported great women leaders who went on to run great companies. When we were new to the community it was welcoming and as the years went by, it was a joy to help others who had just moved to town or just joined our church.

We had remarkably vibrant and diverse congregations of all walks of life and many who were new to America. We prayed together, our kids played together and we always stood ready to help each other out in different ways.

And that's how it is in America. We look to our communities, our faiths, our families for our joy, our support, in good times and bad. It is both how we live our lives and why we live our lives. The strength and power and goodness of America has always been based on the strength and power and goodness of our communities, our families, our faiths. My partners and I had been working for a company that was in the business of helping other businesses. So some of us had this idea that if we really believed our advice was helping companies, we should invest in companies.

We should bet on ourselves and on our advice. Some of the companies we helped start are names you know. An office supply company called Staples — where I'm pleased to see the Obama campaign has been shopping; The Sports Authority, which became a favorite of my sons.

At a time when nobody thought we'd ever see a new steel mill built in America, we took a chance and built one in a corn field in Indiana. Today Steel Dynamics is one of the largest steel producers in the United States. How many days have you woken up feeling that something really special was happening in America? Many of you felt that way on Election Day four years ago. Hope and Change had a powerful appeal. But tonight I'd ask a simple question: If you felt that excitement when you voted for Barack Obama, shouldn't you feel that way now that he's President Obama?

You know there's something wrong with the kind of job he's done as president when the best feeling you had, was the day you voted for him. To put aside the divisiveness and the recriminations. To forget about what might have been and to look ahead to what can be. Now is the time to restore the Promise of America. Many Americans have given up on this president but they haven't ever thought about giving up. Not on themselves. Not on each other. And not on America.

What is needed in our country today is not complicated or profound. It doesn't take a special government commission to tell us what America needs. What America needs is jobs. Lots of jobs. I am running for president to help create a better future.

A future where everyone who wants a job can find one. Where no senior fears for the security of their retirement.
