Newt's mistress fared better than Mitt's money. In the last debate before South Carolina Republicans determine the course of the GOP presidential race, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich deflected his failed marriages better than Mitt Romney defended his success in businesses.
To anyone who thought GOP front-runner Newt Gingrich attacked Mitt Romney Saturday by joking he was only one loss to Sen. Edward Kennedy away from "career politician" status, think again.
Compared to what Gingrich could have said, that was no attack. It was practically a Cinnabon served with cold milk.
