She also mused on what it might have been like had Mitt Romney been elected president.

“I am like a shelion when it comes to defending Mitt. I know his heart, I know his abilities. I know he would have been a fabulous president and I mourn the fact that he is not there. It would have been much better for America if he had been there right now,” she said.

She was then asked by Wallace if she blames the media for the 2012 election, to which to replied: “I am happy to blame the media.”

“I think that any time you are running for office you always think that you are being portrayed unfairly, and, you know, we — of course, on our side believe there is more bias in favor of the other side. I think that, you know, that is a pretty universal,” she said.

According to USA Today, Ann also swatted rumors that she was considering running for office herself, but confirmed that she had been asked by Dancing With the Stars to compete on the upcoming Season 16.
