Appearing on "Fox News Sunday," host Chris Wallace pressed Romney about that statement as well as his answer during Wednesday's GOP debate when he refused to directly answer a question on the biggest misconception about him.
"Governor, can you understand why some voters would be put off by those things?" Wallace asked.
"You know, I can't be perfect," Romney said with a laugh, defending the Cadillac comment by saying his wife has a car at each of their homes, one in Massachusetts and one in California.
He continued, If people think theres something wrong with being successful in America, then theyd better vote for the other guy, because Ive been extraordinarily successful and I want to use that success and that know-how to help the American people."
