Perot Not Impressed by Obama or Romney

Not endorsing anyone but says something has to be done about the fiscal cliff or we're liable to get taken over

Ross Perot, the billionaire who shook up the 1992 presidential campaign, has largely remained silent since his emergence on the nation's political stage nearly two decades ago and as he emerges from the shadows (in part to drum up interest in his forthcoming autobiography), he's remaining silent about one more thing: the current top candidates running for office.

Pressed by USA Today's Richard Wolf to endorse a candidate, Perot declined, despite the fact that "members of his family have donated almost exclusively to Republicans in recent years."
