Romney Won't Run For President In 2016

Mitt Romney will not seek the Republican nomination for president in 2016, reports said Friday. Romney was scheduled to speak to backers on a conference call at 11 a.m. Eastern. The 2012 nominee was to tell supporters he wouldn't run and would "give other leaders in the party the opportunity to become our next nominee."
