She's still all the snow in Tampa and no one knows presidential candidate governor -- -- batter after all -- and Romney has been married him for 43 years an earlier tonight.

She went on the record.

This is not a nice to see.

Thank you.

This yeah I heard you made a video about four years ago in which you said in his personal video it says -- this is -- you sweetheart.

I've never going to do this again.

My question that I have that go play -- -- Well as you know you've probably heard me on Leno last night but Mitt -- at it he says it.

-- -- and I don't know but you say that after every pregnancy so.

You know I don't think -- took it as seriously as I what I meant it because you know Greta I mean you've seen a lot of campaigns and you know how hard this is on families.

And when you have someone that you love.

That's out there.

Putting himself on the line all the time I you know you -- you know it's very hard for families that people that love them love them so much to see him beaten up so much however Greta I will tell you.

That even though I said I would never do it again I -- it's a ha that's committed as a person can be right now because.

I along with so many other Americans recognize what an important election this isn't how critical this time is how many fellow Americans are out of work or struggling.

And as you know women have been hit harder than men by this economy and more women are falling into poverty then man.

Under this economy so work where we are seeing.

If you can even call -- a recovery a jobless recovery.

And you know that is a real concern for my husband and myself and that's why he's running.

He's running because he cares he understands that -- a lot of Americans are suffering.

And you know I hate trust this guy is so completely.

I know how good he is at.

Fixing things and turn things around and getting stalled companies going again.

He really needs to be the person gets in there and -- starts this economy and gets us eight track of recovery.

You know I'm always curious -- -- new -- woman who's been very fortunate I've been very fortune there -- a lot of Americans been very fortune.

Even the obamas have been very fortunate is what I'm really curious as hot -- get that message out to those.

Who haven't been so full of fortune and how to get them -- even believe you that you have the solution I think that's always a challenge for candidates.

Yeah I think and I think it's you know in this.

Age of such uncertainty.

You know I think there are problems with trust with with banned candidates and so.

The only thing that I feel like I can do to bring.

Some clarity to the issue is to be able to stand there and be a character witness for my husband.

Who I know is such a good and decent person who I've seen throughout our years of marriage always caring for others and being there for others.

He's not the guy that talks about things he's the guy that -- and goes out and does things and makes things better.

He's and he's done he's really quite an extraordinary person.

And I have grown in my respect for him for his abilities over these years and watching him.

Being able to.

Really turned things around and and take some things that are in an -- even chaos and -- so I'm very hopeful.

-- and I are very optimistic about the future if we make a change of course.

If we do not make that change of course.

There are so many Americans that are gonna be -- more and more and more and that's what we're seeing right now is sit.

You know gas prices and food prices and you know everything health care costs everything is going up and people's incomes -- actually shrinking.

So you know where they're being pulled and pulled and pulled in every direction.

And there will not be a change unless we change the leadership in Washington.

Much more and -- and Romney.
