He then pivoted his response to a rebuff of Obama's leadership in the Middle East.
"This is a bright speck in the Middle East right now and we need to take advantage of it," Romney said. "But the president has failed the Arab Spring; it's become an Arab winter in many respects and I want to make sure that we stand with voices that share our values."
When asked what he would put in place after repealing the president's health care law, Romney said he would make states responsible for ensuring the poor and uninsured are taken care of, using the federal monies provided to them currently, in the form of Medicaid block grants.
He finished his appearance with a pitch for residents of the Peach State to vote often.
"Go out and vote multiple times by getting your friends to go with you," Romney said.
