We’re here to collect, we’re taking it back.” [applause]

Notes:  According to the press release,

"Four years ago, Barack Obama spoke in Derry, New Hampshire and promised big things for voters. Four years later, it is clear that those promises have been failures that have added to our debt and made it harder for businesses to grow and expand. Mitt Romney is a conservative businessman who will cut government spending and free the private sector to create jobs."
