"He says President Bush isn't the only one to blame. "He's the person where the buck stops, but it goes through the secretary of defense and the planning agencies, the Department of State -- it's the whole administration," Romney says. "They made mistakes... and we're paying for those mistakes."

The president's "surge" policy of putting additional troops into Iraq may never work, says Romney, but it deserves a chance. "We're going to know in a matter of months if it's working or not working."

Romney acknowledges that voters may have a problem with his religion's history of polygamy. "That's part of the history of the church's past that I understand is troubling to people," he says. The practice, outlawed before 1900, is equally troubling to him. "I have a great-great grandfather. They were trying to build a generation out there in the desert and so he took additional wives as he was told to do. And I must admit, I can't image anything more awful than polygamy," he tells Wallace."

Mitt Romney has an interesting view here. President Bush isn't the only one to blame. There are a lot of different people who should be blamed on top of Bush but Bush is usually the one to blame for the war, assuming you go that way. There were a lot of mistakes during that period of time and we are all paying the price now.
I find very hard to believe that Mitt Romney "can't image anything more awful than polygamy." It sounds like a way to emphasize that he doesn't support it, but to put out that common is outrageous. Of course there are things more awful than polygamy.
