G.W. Bush: Romney will make 'great' president

Former president George W. Bush reaffirmed his support of Mitt Romney on Tuesday, saying he would be a "great president" if elected.

"President Bush is an enthusiastic supporter of the Romney-Ryan ticket," said Bush spokesman Freddy Ford.

Ford disputed a New York magazine story -- a Jeb Bush profile we reported on Monday -- that said in part that George W. Bush has been critical of Romney's campaign and skeptical of his chances.

Not so, says Ford: Bush is "confident Mitt Romney is going to be a great president for America."
