Des Moines, Iowa – A ballroom full of supporters cheered Mitt Romney, accompanied by his wife, Ann, and four of their sons, as he took the stage tonight.

“Congratulations to Rick Santorum. He’s fought so hard,” Ann Romney said, speaking briefly before introducing her husband as “the next president of the United States.”

“We also feel it’s been a great victory for us here,” Romney said, after congratulating Santorum. “And thank you, Iowa, for the great send off you’re giving us and to the others in this campaign. This is a campaign night where America wins. We’re going to change the White House and get America back on track.”

The rest of his speech was very close to the stump speech he’s been giving in recent days, including stressing the need to take a more aggressive stance with Iran and talking about how to make the United States a land of opportunity again.
