The Best Of Mitt Romney’s 2012 Run, For Pete’s Sake

Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney waves to his supporters during an election night rally in Boston as he concedes defeat.

Since the day Mitt Romney announced his latest presidential run in June 2011, he fought a hard battle, first against a raft of Republican primary challengers, then against President Obama himself.

It was a long 17 months, filled with debates, gaffes, secret videos, out-of-context statements, binders and Big Bird.

TPM compiled our favorite moments from Romney’s run into one handy reel. So sit back and enjoy the official ending of the 2012 presidential race.
