Whining about attack ads is unbecoming. But promising vengeance is just juvenile.

Newt was unmercifully attacked by these new private money groups that are legal now. I am all for the money, but they should have to reveal their sources. No wonder he is angry. well imagine how freaked out he would be once the obama machine were to take him on.... i blame him for entering a race with so much political baggage in the first place, obviously he is a self serving, arrogant SOB who thinks he is 'above it all'....he tried to immunize himself in the debates by refusing to 'go negative' (hello? exposing a politician's record is going negative?) BECAUSE he knows he carries so much negative baggage.... sorry newt, if romney (and ron paul) is behind the negative ads, the country is being done a service

That was how Obama won---------he got to the money which enabled him to put his advertisements of fear and attack. Propaganda on TV and the net. McCain made a huge mistake in even having a conversation with Obama about whether or not to accept the money from the taxpayer check offs on the IRS forms. The one thing that Romney must do if he continues to win in the various states is to figure out how he is going to persuade the 75% in the Iowa caucus to vote for him. He will need those Reagan Votes and the Reagan like votes of this century to win. Hence, he should start early in determining how he is going to this.

I couldn't agree more! It's a very sad thing in this country when a person's reputation can be ruined by the out and out lies of others. ESPECIALLY when the lies and innuendo are spread by people who hide behind the billboards and don't have the courage to attach their name to the lies they spread. If WE the People stand for such reprehensible behavior, then we deserve what we get.... People wonder why we don't have better choices for President, or members of Congress..... Seeing some of the ads that were done about Newt, made me sick to my stomach. FoxNews ran some of them to show us what the folks in Iowa were bombarded with... Newt is the smartest of the lot. Who in the fig cares how many wives he's had.....?
