This was kinda funny.
The Weekly Standard did a parody of part of Romney's speech.

My favorite two lines:
"The hearty Scandinavian laughter of the Lutherans"
"Q: What about the Christian Scientists?!?"
Ha!
"The hearty Scandinavian laughter of the Lutherans"
This line is especially funny in Minnesota.
Lutherans don't laugh heartedly, at least never in church. The most emotion you'd get is an uncomfortable blush when shaking hands and greeting others seated next to you.
I think Bjorn is channeling Garrison Keillor.
You just need to turn up the folksiness a bit more.
