UPDATED – PHOTOS & VIDEO: Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney Meets With Misameach Families 48 Hours Before Elections

PHOTOS & VIDEO: Misameach children from Lakewood yesterday were treated with a unique opportunity – a meeting with Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney just two days before the General Elections.

About 30 children and volunteers made their way to Yardley, Pennsylvania yesterday where a rally for the Presidential Candidate was held, and attended by about 25,000 people.

At the rally, the Misameach children got VIP seating and got to take in the historic event up close.

But that wasn’t it.

After the large rally, the children and volunteers – pre-screened by security – got to meet with the Presidential Candidate in a private meeting.

After chatting for some time with the children and adults, Romney shook their hands and posed for pictures.

“The Orthodox Jews throughout the Tri-state area are all behind you and praying for you”, one of the volunteers told the candidate, to which Romney responded, “We need more of those!”

WOW!!

There is a sense across the country that something huge is about to happen tomorrow night.

Please vote. Every vote counts. President Romney will see that Orthodox Jews voted for him in droves, and that is very important.

Obama/Biden 2008 = Food stamps and poverty for all.
Romney/Ryan 2012 = Jobs and prosperity for all.

Do we really want a president who thinks g-d lives on a planet called Kobol and that the garden of eden is in missouri? Look up Mormonism and know what it is before voting for this man

Please allow me to give the fact of what really happened. I was part of this wonderful trip and the chesed that this org does is amazing. “The Orthodox Jews throughout the Tri-state area are all behind you and praying for you”, N Lamm said, to which Romney responded, “If only all the jews were orthodox!”

He was implying that its not the orthodox vote hes missing but the non religious.

And what exactly does Obama believe in ?

Yid

Who cares what Romney believes is G-d’s planet? Does it bother you?

Are we voting for the Chief Rabbi of America?

NOPE! We’re voting for president.

Obama believes that every American should be on food stamps and dependent on the government for his daily meal, while Romney believes that every American should have a good job to be able to support his family.

Romney all the way.

(And I take exception with your open bigotry against religions that don’t agree with your faith. You are a very intolerant person. Typical liberal.)

#6 – just to bring the quote “The Orthodox Jews throughout the Tri-state area are all behind you and praying for you”, N Lamm said, to which Romney responded, “If only all the jews were orthodox!”
What he should have said to Mitt Romney is “The Orthodox Jews throughout the country are all behind you and praying for you” sadly Mitt Romney is not going to win NY NJ or CT but in the states like Florida, Ohio, Virginia and a few others, such a comment may have really made Mitt Romneys day… but he is going to win anyway.

In orthodox judiasm as well G-d has a dwelling place and it carries a name as well. R Boruch Ber Ztl said regarding a Catholic wagon driver that did not respect his own religion “in the absence of religion is murder.”

Mr. Romney respects religion and D-d. May G-d bless Mr Romney.

Every concerned legal citizen knows how to vote for save his family in the next four years. There is a bond that not even politicians can break from our support in Israel.
