Romney Drops From The Race
By Andrew Riley • Feb 7th, 2008Romney Campaign Suspended
Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney has dropped out of the race.
“In this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign be a part of aiding a surrender to terror. This is not an easy decision. I hate to lose,” the former Massachusetts governor said.
“If this were only about me, I’d go on. But it’s never been only about me. I entered this race because I love America, and because I love America, in this time of war I feel I have to now stand aside for our party and for our country.”
Romney made the announcement Thursday afternoon at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington.
Listen to his parting speech below. It was a pretty good speech.
