Description | Republicans could move Sen. Marco Rubio's (R-Fla.) speech at the Republican National Convention to ensure Ann Romney's speech is carried by the television networks, multiple Republican sources said Friday.
Rubio is currently slated to give the speech immediately preceding that of Mitt Romney, who will accept the Republican presidential nomination on Thursday night.
Romney's wife, Ann, had originally been scheduled to speak on Monday night. But after the broadcast networks decided in unison only to carry three of the four nights of the GOP convention — skipping Monday — organizers began scrambling to figure out how to best showcase their candidate's popular wife. |
