Keeping it on Newt
The newest salvo from Romney's SuperPAC auxiliary is aimed at the usual target, Newt Gingrich. Something to watch for in the closing days: Will the group turn its fire on Rick Santorum?Collected in politicobensmith's videos Dec 29, 2011 -

In an interview with the Boston Herald, Senator Scott Brown complained of that the media was holding its punches with Elizabeth Warren:Collected in politicobensmith's videos Dec 29, 2011 -
Paul's wrecking crew, cont'd
Even as Gingrich gets tangled up in whether he should condemn his SuperPAC's negative mail, the Paul campaign keeps swinging away at "hypocrites" and "serial flip-floppers." It seems hard to argue that there's been any more effective paid media presence this cycle -- or any really effective paid media at all -- outside the Paul barrage, which has made others' attacks look mild by comparison.Collected in politicobensmith's videos Dec 28, 2011 -

The Romney-Paul campaign
This evening's assault on Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry from the SuperPAC waging an air war for Mitt Romney in Iowa is the purest indication yet of how well aligned Romney's goals are with those of Rep. Ron Paul.Collected in politicobensmith's videos Dec 21, 2011 -
Three wives
Jennifer Jacobs of the Des Moines Register notes that wives Romney and Perry both have new ads out on the Iowa market, touting their respective husband's presidential credentials.
