Mitt Romney announced his candidacy for president on Feb. 13, 2007. Almost a year later, on Feb. 7, 2008, he announced the suspension of his campaign for the Republican nomination in a speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference, in Washington. " ... I entered this race because I love America, and because I love America, I feel I must now stand aside, for our party and for our country," he said in the speech.
