the quote is buried in the article linked below, but here is the verbatim quote, emphasis mine:
i know we've had some previous presidents who were prone to making stupid comments, but as they say the hits keep on coming. maybe one day he'll think before he speaks, but i'm not sure thinking is mitt's forte at this point....
“I appreciate the fact that she is on the ground, safe and sound. And I don’t think she knows just how worried some of us were,” Romney said. “When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she’s safe and sound.”
