The Romney campaign has introduced a new radio ad featuring Ann Romney speaking about Mitt's success as a father. Listen here. This has caused some interesting reaction and speculation about the motive behind the ad. I like the ad because I want the President to be a family man. The recent report from the Federal Interagency Forum on Child and Family Statistics suggests that a lot of progress has been made since the 1990's related to teen sexual behavior and births to unmarried teens. One would only be speculating, of course, to suggest that all of this is caused by the direction a President leads us, but I think the type of leaders we have can have an impact. In short, I would rather have the family man than the man wrecked by success.

"The most important work being done to strengthen America's future is the work that is being done within the four walls of the American home. Children need the guiding hand of responsible parents. As a child swims through our increasingly polluted and turbulent waters, there is no help more sure than that of a loving mother and father. Every child deserves a mother and a father." -Mitt Romney, From Townhall article, 7/13/2007.
