The former Massachusetts governor held the "National Call Day" event at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.

Mitt Romney (R), Candidate for President: "For me, the new American dream that we have to build is a dream with strong families, great schools, health care people know they can afford have with them throughout their life. A safe and prosperous nation."
Among those helping with today's telethon was Utah's Lieutenant Governor Gary Herbert.
Political observers say Romney will need to raise more than 25 million dollars in the next three months if he hopes to get any kind of campaign off the ground.
