and charging that Romney is hypocritical for attacking him for Freddie Mac when he has stock in it.

It strikes me that Romney has a good answer for this charge, which Gingrich seems to have ignored.

Romney is saying that all of his investments are in a blind trust, and that he therefore did not know that his portfolio has Freddie Mac stock.

Gingrich continues to make an issue of this in the face of what sounds like a very reasonable response from Romney.

Anyone who reads my posts on FR can see that I am a very enthusiastic Newt supporter at this point, but it pains me to see him continue to try to nail Romney on this issue because I think it the voters will buy Romney's answer and come away with the impression that Newt is making bogus claims.

How long has it been in the blind trust? I don't believe Bain, under Mitt's direction, wasn't buying Fannie and Freddie. It was in every balanced portfolio in the 90's and 00's.

So you and I know but Romney doesn't?
