Mitt Romney

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.

I know what it takes to create jobs. Not just watch jobs being created, but actually creating jobs.

I know how to create job. Not just watch jobs being created but actually creating jobs.

Create in four years by virtue of the policies that we put in place, we get the unemployment rate down to 6 percent or perhaps a little lower.

If I had been president, we would have gotten there faster.

Over a period of four years, by virtue of the policies that we put in place, we will get the unemployment rate down to 6 percent, or perhaps a little lower.

He helped create 100,000 jobs when he was CEO of private equity firm Bain Capital.

Of course, they also don't mention a couple of other things. One is that we were able to help create over 100,000 jobs. And secondly, on the president's watch, about 100,000 jobs were lost in the auto industry and auto dealers and auto…

They said, oh, gosh, Governor Romney at Bain Capital close downed a steel factory, but their problem, of course, is that the steel factory closed down two years after I left Bain Capital.

I want to make it very clear I repudiate that effort. I think it's the wrong course for a 'PAC' or a campaign. I hope that our campaigns can respectively be about the future and about issues and about a vision for America.

I know how business works. I know why jobs come and why they go.

I had no idea what that individual's sexual orientation might be. Going back to the 1960s, that wasn't something that we all discussed or considered.

Well, I think I was one who did some stupid things in high school, and if anyone feels that they were offended by that, I certainly apologize for that.

If two people of the same gender want to live together, want to have a loving relationship and even want to adopt a child in my state, individuals of the same sex are able to adopt children.

Every child deserves to have a mother and a father.

I oppose same-sex marriage, and that has been my view.

I do not believe in discriminating against people based upon their sexual orientation.

I believe marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman.

I think the gay community needs more support from the Republican Party. And I would be a voice in the Republican Party to foster anti-discrimination efforts.

I believe marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman.

I have the same view on marriage that I have when -- had when I was governor and that I've expressed many times. I believe marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman.

Just this morning there was some news that came across the wire that said that the unemployment rate has dropped to 8.1 percent. And normally that would be cause for celebration. But, in fact, anything over eight percent, anything near…

We seem to be slowing down, not speeding up. This is not progress. This is very, very disappointing.

If these reports are true, this is a dark day for freedom and it's a day of shame for the Obama administration.
