Capehart: Mitt Romney Thinks He’s Relevant Because He Was Right About Russia

Capehart: Mitt Romney Thinks He’s Relevant Because He Was Right About Russia (RealClearPolitics)

Washington Post opinion writer Jonathan Capehart reacts to Mitt Romney criticizing President Obama's secret letter to the Ayatollah of Iran.

JONATHAN CAPEHART, WASHINGTON POST: I love hearing Mitt Romney pontificating from the outside, trying to make himself remain relevant to the conversation simply because he gave an answer during a debate talking about Russia being our number one enemy, and in some ways, being proven right.

What I would like to hear from Mitt Romney and Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz is, okay, so you don't like what the president's doing. What would you do? If you had all the information the president had, what would you do differently? And if you would still go to war, explain that and defend it. And then tell the American people whether you're sending its sons and daughters off to yet another war. Which we can't afford! That's the other thing.
