Obama camp: Ann Romney’s RNC speech ‘was very effective’

President Obama did not watch the Republican National Convention speeches last night, but his campaign acknowledged that Ann Romney — a key weapon in her husband’s outreach to women — turned in a “very effective” performance.

“She gave a speech about her relationship with her husband, the strength of her marriage, the love… she has for her husband, and did a great job doing that and it was very effective,” said Obama spokeswoman Jen Psaki, according to the pool report. “We’ll leave it to the voters and the viewers to decide what their thoughts are on the ticket.”
