Romney in March 2012: "If Obama is reelected, Iran will get a nuclear weapon."
From MARCH 4, 2012 -
SNELLVILLE, GA – Just hours after President Obama described to a group of pro-Israel activists the steps he has taken and will take to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, Mitt Romney made a dire prediction about the consequences for that effort if the president is reelected.
"If Barack Obama gets re-elected, Iran will have a nuclear weapon and the world will change if that’s the case," Romney told a crowd of more than 1,500 in this suburb east of Atlanta.
Romney has stepped up his criticism of President Obama on foreign affairs, hitting the president for mission muddle in Afghanistan yesterday and continuing to label the president as weak regarding Iran, as he did today in response to a question from an eleven year-old boy.
Romney: Lack of Afghan mission clarity ‘disturbing’
"This president failed to speak out when the dissidents took the streets in Tehran, he had nothing to say,” Romney said. “This is a president who has failed to put in place crippling sanctions against Iran. He's also failed to communicate that military options are on the table and in fact in our hand. And that it's unacceptable to America for Iran to have a nuclear weapon. I will have those military options, I will take those crippling sanctions and put them in place, and I will speak out to the Iranian people about the peril of them becoming nuclear."

I'd say it's ROMNEY who has FAILED. He LOST the election, and his prediction re: Iran has proved immensely WRONG. If Rmoney and Old Man McCain had their way, we'd have bombed Iran already. As is, with President Obama in his 2nd term, we have PEACE we can believe in - for a CHANGE.
