About two or three months following the end of Mitt Romney’s race for the Republican nomination, he appeared at an annual awards dinner for the Radio-Television Correspondents Association dinner as a guest speaker.

In his speech he gave the top ten reasons for his loss David Letterman style.  In reverse order:

No. 10: There weren’t as many Osmonds as he thought.
No. 9: Got tired of the corkscrew landings of his campaign plane while under fire
No. 8: As a lifelong hunter, I didn’t want to miss the start of varmint season.
No. 7: There wasn’t room for two Christian leaders in the presidential race
No. 6: I was upset that no one bothered to search my passport files.
No. 5: I’d rather get fat, grow a beard and try for the Nobel prize.
No. 4: Got tired of wearing a dark suit and tie, and I wanted to kick back in a light colored suit and tie.
No. 3: When my wife realized I couldn’t win the GOP nomination, my fundraising dried up.
No. 2: I took a bad fall at a campaign rally and broke my hair.
And the No. 1 reason Romney dropped out:

His campaign relied on a flawed campaign strategy that as Utah goes, so goes the nation.
