Mitt Romney Wants You To Know How Awful Newt Gingrich Is

Newt Gingrich. Did you know that he's an awful old curr who gets run out of Congress by his own party, took a whole lot of money to become an ... ahem ... "influence peddler" and is probably eye-balling wife No. 4 somewhere in the crowd? What? You already knew that? Hmmm. What if Mitt Romney shouts that a little louder? Does that help? Will that make people stop voting for Newt, who recently creamed Romney, beating him by double-digits in the racially tinged, bitter South Carolina primary?

Hahaha. No. Because the problem many GOP voters are having is that while Newt Gingrich is a duplicitous character, Romney isn't exactly "Dream Date" material either.

As I tweeted during the most recent GOP debate when Ron Paul was talking about electability:

"Now, now, Ron. None of you are electable."

The other folks running for president not named Romney and Gingrich were reduced to a not-so-colorful sideshow, as Rick and Ron barely got a word in and were positioned in the periphery of the Mitt and Newt showdown. No one really "won" and the debate was slightly boring as Newt couldn't feed like the energy vampire he is, off the hype of a bloodthirsty crowd. With a disciplined, subdued audience, Gingrich lost all of his mojo and Romney was able to Gil Gunderson his way through a stuttering, stammering but somewhat effective attack.

It even made him momentarily go speechless. But that was really the only interesting moment of the debate.

It was like a greatest hits of why no one really likes Newt.

1. He was reprimanded and run out of D.C. by his own people.

2. He came back as a "not" lobbyist who lobbied Congress Critters.

3. He eats babies.

4. He was once nice to Nancy Pelosi.

5. He had an extra-marital threesome with these Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac chicks.

Yadda. Yadda. Yadda.
