Romney thanks Clinton for compliment

Mitt Romney, on CNBC today, responding to Bill Clinton's praise of his business record.

"I'm happy to embrace my past in private equity. I'm very proud of my record -- proud of the work I've had, both as the governor of Massachusetts and as well as the leader of the Olympics.

.... I was happy to see President Clinton made a similar statement today and called my record superb."

He said "sterling", Mitt, not "superb".

But "sterling", I think, is an even more superb compliment than superb.

Here's the xcript.
