The article talks about a wrapping up speech given during a townhall meeting at Adams Memorial Opera House in New Hampshire, England, by the former Florida governor & candidate for president Jeb Bush, who has a noticeably relaxed, quick to joke & eager for communicating attitude towards the people.

The article focuses on the unique style of speaking of U.S. presidential candidate Mitt Romney wherein he employs a language of his own. The author states that the style of Romney has distinguished him throughout his career and has influenced the word choices of those who work with him. Geoffrey Rehnert, former executive at Bain Capital, says that Romney has made clear that he held himself to a high standard of behavior in terms of vocabulary.

WOLFEBORO, N.H. -- Aides to Mitt Romney have pored over video footage of potential running mates, studying hundreds of hours of Sunday news show appearances, campaign debates and stump speeches for insight into how they handle unwelcome inquiries, even hecklers. They have instructed possible No. 2's to fill out a questionnaire with about 80 detailed and sometimes intrusive questions covering the financial and the personal, including, ''Have you ever been unfaithful?''

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. -- Mitt Romney said on Monday that ''even Jimmy Carter'' would have issued the order to kill Osama bin Laden in Pakistan a year ago, dismissing President Obama's suggestion that Mr. Romney, the presumptive Republican nominee, would not have followed the same path as the president. The swipe at the White House, delivered casually on the rope line of a campaign event here, touched off a pointed exchange with Mr. Obama, who quickly accused Mr. Romney of flip-flopping on an issue that the president has put at the center of his re-election campaign.

Mitt Romney's campaign typically leaves little to chance, so when his aides discovered three drunken homeless men on a bench, smoking and shouting, outside Nashua City Hall in New Hampshire, where Mr. Romney was set to receive a major endorsement, they swung into action. Will Ritter, the 28-year-old director of candidate operations and advance, went to a diner and bought the men hot sandwiches and coffee. He then sat down with them, chatted about their life stories and eventually struck a deal. The men, he said, were welcome to stay and be a part of the event as long as they did not disrupt it with heckling. The men agreed, and the endorsement in November went off without a hitch.

CORRECTION APPENDED MANCHESTER, N.H. -- Campaign advisers to former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts, stung by unexpectedly fierce attacks from Republican rivals on his career as a corporate buyout specialist, are scrambling to avoid a prolonged and nasty battle over his business record before it does lasting damage to the front-runner. Although the advisers had always expected that Democrats would malign Mr. Romney's work of buying and selling companies, they were largely unprepared for an assault that came so early in the campaign and from within the ranks of their own party, those involved in the campaign discussions said.

HOLLIS, N.H. -- What's left of Ron Paul's patience with the news media appears to be running out. During a campaign stop here Monday morning, Mr. Paul's staff abruptly cut off a brief interview with the CNN reporter Dana Bash when she asked about his ability to connect with voters in New Hampshire.

MANCHESTER, N.H. -- Carl P. Paladino, an unpredictable, unconventional and unvarnished Republican candidate for governor of New York in 2010, made an unexpected visit to New Hampshire this weekend to experiment with a new role: as an on-message, on-script and on-team surrogate (of sorts) for Newt Gingrich. It was an awkward fit, and in Mr. Paladino's first few hours on the trail it seemed a bit like a large man trying on a small coat. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BEDFORD, N.H. -- Over the next week, as most of the Republican presidential candidates barnstorm Iowa, Mitt Romney will rumble across New Hampshire on his most elaborate campaign swing of the election: a three-day, nine-town bus tour that his campaign has nicknamed ''Earn It.'' The real message may be this: ''Don't Squander It.'' [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

NASHUA, N.H. - Mitt Romney collected the backing of the freshman Senator Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire on Sunday, a coveted endorsement from a conservative Republican and rising star in state politics, amid growing signs that leaders from the party's right wing are making peace with the possibility of Mr. Romney as their nominee. The endorsement from Ms. Ayotte, Mr. Romney's most prominent from a sitting elected official in New Hampshire, fueled a sense of momentum for his campaign in the state, a crucial primary battleground that he lost by a relatively narrow margin in 2008.

BEDFORD, N.H. -- Mitt Romney fought to keep an upper hand in the Republican presidential race on Monday as his rivals sought to slow his march to the nomination and raise doubts about his electability by branding him as a job-killing corporate villain. As New Hampshire voters prepared to cast ballots Tuesday in the nation's first primary, Mr. Romney found himself on the unfamiliar terrain of defending his business pedigree against fellow Republicans as his challengers tried to tap into a populist sentiment. He played into the criticism with a handful of missteps, with rivals jumping on him for having suggested that he, too, has feared getting ''a pink slip.'' [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Enjoying a strong lead in New Hampshire polls, Mitt Romney flew here Thursday to get a jump-start with voters in the first Southern primary and begin what might be his biggest challenge yet: convincing Republicans in this socially conservative state that he is the candidate who best represents their values. Fresh from a victory lap through New Hampshire after narrowly winning the Iowa caucuses on Tuesday, Mr. Romney spoke at a rally with Gov. Nikki R. Haley, who was elected with the help of the Tea Party movement, and Senator John McCain, who won this state in 2008. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
