Mitt Romney shares biggest mistake of campaign
The former presidential candidate tells Katie Couric what he wants to pass along to the next GOP nominee.
http://news.yahoo.com/mitt-romney-exclusive-interview-with-katie-couric-092359394.html
Former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney told Yahoo Global News Anchor Katie Couric in an exclusive interview Wednesday that he decided not to run for president a third time for a simple reason.
It just didnt feel right, Romney said in his first interview since deciding at the end of January not to mount another campaign. Somehow, it just didnt feel like this was the right time for us to step forward.
If he had run, Romney said, he would have spent a great deal of time taking my message to Hispanic Americans and to other minority groups in this country African Americans, Asian Americans and describing why it is that conservative principles are best for them and for their families.
Thats something I wish I wouldve spent a lot more time doing in 2012, he said.

Mr. Bling would have spent more time telling those folks to just borrow money to start their own business, and pull themselves up like he did. Become a people, be a corporation my friends.
