Romney officially accepted the GOP presidential nomination Thursday evening in Tampa, Fla.

{mosads}”If there is one takeaway from this week’s convention, it is that we have not lost faith in America’s greatness or each other, but we need a commander in chief who is going to make sure that better days are ahead of us,” Gardner said. “I believe in America, and that is why I also believe in America’s comeback team.”

Romney selected House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) to be his running mate.
