Mitt Romney

America deserves an honest debate about the future course of the country and I agreed. I'm waiting to hear him begin that.

His comments about rape were deeply offensive. And I can't defend what he said. I can't defend him. The thing he should consider is what's in the best interest of the things he believes most deeply. What will help the country at this -- at…

I think Americans want a person of faith to lead the country. I don't think that they care about the particular brand of faith so much as whether we share values.

Rape is rape. No matter what kind of name you want to put on it. Rape is rape. And it shouldn't be tolerated.

These remarks are inexcusable. They are inaccurate. They're wrong and they're insulting to women who are victims of rape.

You know, I'm happy to talk about my faith to people in our country. I believe in God. I believe that all the children on earth are children of God. So will there be a speech about this at some point? Perhaps. Haven't give than a final…

It seems the first victim of the Obama campaign is the truth.

Harry Reid's charge is totally false. I'm sure waiting for Harry to put up who it was that told him what he says they told him. I don't believe it for a minute, by the way.

I did go back and look at my taxes and over the past 10 years, I never paid less than 13 percent. The most recent year is 13.6 percent or something like that. So I've paid taxes every single year. Harry Reid's charge is totally false.

We speak with exactly the same policy today. He and I have exactly the same policy. The place that there's a big difference is between myself and Paul Ryan and the president. The president has a very different plan.

Actually, Paul Ryan and my plan for Medicare I think is the same. If not identical, it's probably close to identical.

The president's plan cuts Medicare -- excuse me. Well, let's see. There we go -- by $716 billion. Cut. In addition, the trustees of Medicare estimate that approximately four million people will lose their coverage under Medicare…

We also shouldn't cut Medicare to pay for Obamacare to the tune of some $700 billion. That's what -- that's what the president does to Medicare, to current recipients of Medicare. He cuts the payments that go to Medicare by $700 billion…

It's time for Harry to put up or shut up. Harry is going to have to describe who it is he spoke with. Because of course that's totally and completely wrong. It's untrue, dishonest and inaccurate. It's wrong.

Sometimes I just don't think he understands what it takes to help people. I know he wants to help. He doesn't know what he's got to do.

It's time for harry to put up or shut up. Harry is going to have to describe who it is he spoke with. Because of course, that's totally and completely wrong. It's untrue, dishonest and incorrect. It's wrong. So I'm looking forward to have…

You know, it's interesting, too, the various fact checkers look at some of these charges in the Obama ads and they say they're wrong and inaccurate and yet they keep running them.

Sometimes, I just don't think he understands what it takes to help people. I know he wants to help, but he doesn't know what he's got to do.

With a very careful executive action, he removed the requirement of work from welfare. It is wrong to make any change that would make America more of a nation of government dependency. We must restore and I will restore work into welfare.

I would like to have a provision in the Constitution that... the president has to have spent at least three years working in business before he can become president of the United States.

I don't agree with all the people who support me and my guess is they don't all agree with everything I believe in.

With a very careful executive action, he removed the requirement of work from welfare. It is wrong to make any change that would make America more of a nation of government dependency. We must restore and I will restore work into welfare.

This is a tragedy that should never befall any house of worship.

It is time for Harry to put up or shut up. Harry is going to have to describe who it is he spoke with because of course that is totally and completely wrong. It's untrue, dishonest, and inaccurate. It's wrong. So I'm looking forward to…

Russia is the number one adversary in that regard. That doesn't make them an enemy. It doesn't make them a combatant.
