(CBS News) 

As 2011 winds down and the Republican presidential primary race heats up with Tuesday's Iowa caucuses, "Face the Nation" asked the seven GOP White House hopefuls what resolution they would be making to ring in 2012.

Here are their responses:

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney

"This coming year I will endeavor to say thank you more often. Appreciation is an underappreciated quality and too often I think I get a lot of help from folks and I nod my head or move on without stopping and staying thank you, so I want to be more appreciative."

Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman

"A little more love and compassion. I hope, you know as we're winding down in Iraq and we're looking at a lot of families that have lost a mom or a dad or a spouse in the theater of combat, Because when I say, this nation has given its all, this nation has given its all. It would be a great thing if this next year, where we have a widow or a spouse who has lost a loved one or a child that doesn't have a dad or a mom to show a little more love and concern to them, that would be a great thing for this country to do."
