Pro-Newt Ad Attacks ‘Liberal’ GOP

With Ron Paul named the newly minted frontrunner in Iowa polls, Newt Gingrich has already launched an aggressive attack against his chief rivals, Paul and Mitt Romney. A new advertisement released by the pro-Gingrich Super PAC Winning Our Future is urging voters not to let “the liberal Republican establishment” choose the GOP presidential candidate. The ad will air in Iowa on Wednesday, and run on broadcast and cable TV until the Jan. 2, a day before the Iowa caucuses. The voiceover in the 30-second spot points out Gingrich’s successes as speaker of the House and blasts his Republican adversaries for “attacking him with falsehoods.” In another combative move, Gingrich closed a speech in Iowa on Tuesday by challenging Romney to a 90-minute debate and pointing out his reputation as a “Massachusetts moderate.”
