Romney warmly greeted at GOP convention

(AP) Vanquished Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney got an enthusiastic greeting when he appeared to speak Wednesday night to delegates at the Republican National Convention.

Romney said Washington is dominated by liberal politics and asserted that people are tired of it. He said the country needs change "from a liberal Washington to a conservative Washington."

Romney unsuccessfully challenged McCain for his party's presidential nod. The former Massachusetts governor said Wednesday night that the prescription for people wanting change is to "throw out the liberal government in Washington and elect John McCain and Sarah Palin."
