Mitt: Is committed to non-Ames, Iowa

ANKENY, Iowa, Mitt Romney, said on Friday that was "fully committed" to compete in launch of the Iowa caucuses, but he refused to say if it would be part of the survey of GOP state of this summer.

"After" my announcement is complete and we eat we are, our team meet and decide exactly how we are going to participate in various States and surveys of straw, Romney told reporters after touring a small business in this suburb of Des Moines.

Continue reading in the State for the first time in the campaign of 2012, the former Governor of Massachusetts described questions about whether he would be the Republican Party of Iowa Ames contest survey as a matter of mere "tactics".

It is very different from the candidacy of Romney four years ago, when it was highlighted her participation in Ames as an indication of respect for what they called the "process of Iowa" and a key distinction with rivals that were bypassing the traditional test of the organization. Officials of Romney want to run what they often call a campaign "reduced" this time and do not want to spend significant money on a symbolic competition often is dominated by the more conservative voters in the party and they could only reinforce the challenge of the former Governor of Massachusetts. In 2007, his campaign spent considerable money in Ames, only to see Mike Huckabee Gets the momentum of her due to his strong second place showing. Months later, Huckabee defeated Romney in the assemblies by 9 percent, a blow which never recovered his campaign.

Still, even when he tried to Dodge questions about Ames, Romney made it clear on Friday that he was not going to ignore the caucus in the State.

"I am fully committed to Iowa and the process," he said.

Asked the praise that gave Iowa four years ago, Romney said that Iowa still matters and noted that it had intended to participate in the discussions scheduled for the State.

"Iowa is first in the nation," he said. "Iowa is a process of assemblies which attracts people from around the State really get to know the various candidates and understand about their campaigns and vision for America."

Romney continued: "that is why I think that everyone will see that it is intended to sit in the White House come to Iowa, spend time here, debating here."

As for how much time passes here - and the aggressiveness competes in the assemblies, Romney suggested that he was waiting to determine who would be in the still unstable country.

"We [running in Iowa] probably will be defined over time by different candidates in different ways," said.
