Mitt Romney: Obama needs to learn he lost the midterm election
Former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney said Sunday that President Obama should let Republicans set the political agenda next year.
"The president has got to learn that he lost this last election round," Romney said on CBS' Face the Nation. "The American people spoke loud and clear. Let those people who were elected come together with a piece of legislation on this and other topics, and then he has a chance to veto them if he doesn't like them." --Jon Terbush
