Yes, Newt is going forward with ads as well...I’ve heard the ads played yesterday. His PAC has also been flooding the airwaves (they’ve been playing all morning) with the same attack. Newt said it was a mistake, now denies he said that. I think his stance on the subject depends on which way the wind blows.
“Newt said it was a mistake, now denies he said that.”
Well, what did he say “exactly’? And I mean a long enough quote so that the listener can judge what was said in context (with question that elecited the quote. News media never seems to report it that way in these situation. Yesterday, when the attacks from Romney (on bothe Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry) came from the media, including the nearly identical attacks from the “conservative” talk-radio hosts, I knew that today they would be reporting that Gingrich and Perry had backed off. Let’s just wait and see. I really sense deaperation on the part of the establishment who has annointed Romney to end this at South Carolina or Florida. They are terrified that Romney’s horrible primary showings are not scaring the base into this herd-mentality-lets-coalesce-around-Romney-and-start-running-against-Obama thing they are pimping. They know if this goes on, their man will not get the nomination.
