The
Journal has a piece up about Mitt today and
excerpts of quotes from an interview with him.
I liked this part because I love the way he describes his decision making process...
On why he left the race on Feb. 7:
"You sit down with your team and you look at what the numbers are, you look at the upcoming primaries, what the prospects are, you talk about, 'Can we go to the convention? Would Mike Huckabee and myself and others have enough delegates that we can keep Sen. McCain from getting the nomination and end up going to the convention?' I mean you go through all the scenarios and one by one you say, 'Well no that one doesn't work, that's not realistic' and 'Oh, that one doesn't work, that's not realistic, we're not going to do well in that state' … You go through that kind of process and that's what led to our conclusion that it was very unlikely that I would be able to win the nomination given the success through Super Tuesday. Was it possible? Yes. Was it very likely? No."
