KING: What do you make and did you make of Governor Palin?
ROMNEY: Boy, she was able to connect with our party in a very powerful way, ignite a lot of enthusiasm and excitement. That kind of political skill is rare. I hadn't met her before the announcement that she was going to be our VP nominee. And I thought, boy, she's going to have a tough time up there on the stage at the Republican convention.
Was I wrong. She got out there and just lit the place up, and was able to draw a lot of support from across the nation. She's a powerful voice.
