the strength? go after the main bragging point and smash his face on it. yeah. if you think about the scale of these ads, we re talking about $3.7 million being dumped in south carolina. that s about what mitt romney dropped on newt gingrich in iowa. and it had a devastating effect on him. then you throw in rick perry competing down there. and they are thinking that south carolina could put this away for them, but it could be a tough state. let s get to the point of what the ad says. here s another excerpt of the video going after romney from a pro-gingrich super pack. let s watch it. they fire people. they cut benefits. they sell assets. what did he do when he was the ceo of this holding company? a group of corporate raiders led by mitt romney, more ruthless than wall street.
they have created this story around him for a specific purpose, which was a 9% unemployment rate. not talk about mormonism or cultural values or anything but jobs, jobs, jobs. the plan was to talk up mormonism? i m saying not. but the point is, they overdid it. they overmanaged. you can be honest about things is all newt is saying. and mitt romney is a control freak who has a control freak for a campaign where they deliberately just for the fun of it to take notice of things, when they say an event, they put them to start at 5:05. here s jon huntsman hitting him from another side all together. he serve d as ambassador to china. he had strong words for romney. i thought it was effective yesterday morning. let s watch jon huntsman go after romney. i was criticized last night by governor romney for putting

a vulnerable president. they are about to nominate, pause, mitt romney? if they don t rally around other candidates, could romney grab this? finally, absurd pretensions to political innocence and right-wing orthodoxy. we start with mitt romney under attack. thank you to this gentleman here. we have amazing clips to show you. from david gregory s debate yesterday, over the last few days mitt romney has been attacked by the rest of the republican field on the exact things that are seen as his selling points. let s face it. his business background and his outside washington persona, his political innocence. he was hit hard yesterday at that meet the press debate. let s watch what romney said
