Ann Romney appeared at a "Women for Mitt" rally in Findlay, Ohio Wednesday. She told a crowd of about 650 people that Mitt Romney has made tough choices and been a success. She tauted his success as a businessman, as the head of the Olympics in Salt Lake City in 2002, and as a governor of Massachusetts.
The event was organized to appeal to women and most of those in attendance at the University of Findlay location were college age women. Ann Romney said her husband is a "can-do" guy and that America needs a leader "who knows how to fix things."
She also told the cheering crowd, "It's time to fire the coach," referring to president Obama.
