Regrets? Romney Has A Few
TITUSVILLE, FLA. -- After taking a closed tour of the Kennedy Space Center, a reporter asked Mitt Romney if he had any regrets about the way he's conducted his campaign to this point.
"Gosh, the answer is I'm sure there are some things I'd regret, but I'm not sure I want to lay them all out," Romney said. "I mean hindsight is 20/20. The states I didn't do as well in I'd probably put less in. The states I was close in, I'd put more in, all right? But that's from the benefit of hindsight."
Romney said that his campaign was very serious about running in each of the early states and that his campaign team felt good about the decisions it had made.
"If you knew then what you knew now, would you change things? Well, that is obvious of course," he said. "But if you look for the beginning, I think we did it right."
Romney was impressed by his tour of the Space Center, which gave him an up-close view of the launch pad and even a peak inside a shuttle's cockpit.
"I support the NASA program—the president's vision program, which consists of a manned space mission back to the moon, as well as an ongoing mission to Mars," Romney said.
Romney was also asked if he supports the creation of a national catastrophe fund—an important issue in hurricane-prone Florida.
"I haven't endorsed a specific bill," Romney said." As I have indicated before, as well, I'm willing to sit down with the governor and with leaders of the insurance industry and others and talk about the options for providing for home insurance for individuals that are finding it difficult to find that insurance, and to deal with the gap that exists between what is available privately and what needs to be available for people to have confidence in their economic future."
