Here are comments from U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan to deliver in Norfolk, Va. Saturday morning after being selected as the running mate by Mitt Romney.
Here are excerpts from the speech that U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan is expected to deliver Saturday morning after being chosen as the running mate for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. ____________________________________ Mitt Romney is a leader with the skills, the background and the character that our country needs at a crucial time in its history. Following four years of failed leadership, the hopes of our country, which have inspired the world, are growing dim; and they need someone to revive them. Governor Romney is the man for this moment; and he and I share one commitment: we will restore the dreams and greatness of this country.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — often dubbed one of the "rock stars" of the Republican party — is headed to Wisconsin next month to campaign for Gov. Scott Walker. The May 1 visit to Green Bay and Milwaukee comes about one month before the Republican governor will try to retain his seat in the state's historic recall election.
