Ann Romney: If Mitt Loses, No More Races

(AP) – Ann Romney says her husband will not run again if this race doesn't turn out the way they hope. Romney told ABC's The View today that it was "a very hard thing" to put her family through another White House bid after he lost the 2008 Republican primary. She said she agreed because she feels her husband can bring economic prosperity to America, but they "absolutely" will not do it again if he loses.

Also appearing was the Romneys' son Josh, who was asked about brother Tagg's joke after this week's contentious debate that he wanted to "take a swing at" President Obama. Josh Romney said as someone who's been slugged by Tagg, he can assure Obama he has nothing to worry about.

Why does this remind me of that dickhead pastor who said on TV if his flock didn't raise $1m he would die. The Lord told him that (of course). Lying scum.

Michelle Obama said the very same thing, more or less, about four years ago.

Did anyone understand what Ann Romney said about "choice" on the VIEW yesterday? Is MittBAIN so afraid to confront Woopie Goldberg face to face that he wouldn't even chance hiding under Liz Hassleback's skirt and appear in person after he said he would?   Tough on China and a yellow,jelly spined coward if confronted by a strong willed free thinking sharp tongued WOMAN, a dark skinned one at that.hhmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Could it be he fears women by "CHOICE"? Or ALL people of COLOR by "CHOICE?
