Utah's Republican delegation is making its way back home now after hearing John McCain's acceptance speech last night.
So how are delegates feeling about John McCain these days?
The Utah delegates held a pizza party late last night to celebrate the close of the Republican convention. They seemed pleased as they prepared to head home.
"We're thrilled. We're excited. We're just totally, totally pumped up," one delegate said.
But did John McCain win over some of those who came here still wishing Mitt Romney was on the ticket?
"Oh, I think he did. There's no doubt anymore that he's out candidate, and everyone's rallying behind him," another delegate said.
"He said what he needed to say," a woman added.
Of course now the political back and forth will really pick up as the candidates head down the home stretch to November.
