The former President had kind words for Mitt Romney during an interview with Larry King:
George HW Bush on Romney:
“He’s a reasonable guy,” George Bush said of Romney. “He’s a conservative fellow, that’s good. But no, I think he’d be a good president, a very good president.”
It looks Romney can count on the Bush family’s support next time around.

Also worth noting — Barbara Bush’s remarks on Sarah Palin:
“I sat next to her once. Thought she was beautiful,” Barbara Bush said of Palin. “And she’s very happy in Alaska, and I hope she’ll stay there.”

the acute insight of a former president is valuable! I support Romney!
That Palin reference by Barbara is driving the Palinites batty. In fact some of their responses have been downright rude and flippant – telling her to “just shut up”.
What kind of response it that when someone speaks their mind? We heard recent TP “leaders” speaking against Romney recently. Did we tell them to “just shut up”. Nah, that’s just childish behavior.
Thanks for putting it all together for us, Aaronius! Love seeing articles like this show up in the Google search for Mitt! Like Mark said, it is huge to hear these words coming from someone has already “done the job.” Getting kind words from Palin in her book and recently from Newt too .. it’s all good!
@Crystalf – Thank you! …and you’re right, having a former President at your back can’t hurt (unless it’s Jimmy Carter)! :D
