Politics The Romneys won‘t attack Gingrich’s personal life; directly, that is

Mitt Romney, Ann Romney reference Newt Gingrich marriages
The marriage of Mitt and Ann Romney is cleaner than a “Brady Bunch” rerun. They’ve been together for 42 years, have five children and she says they never have serious arguments. The story of how they met could put you in a sugar coma. Seriously, their first date was to see “The Sound of Music,” according to the Boston Globe.

Compare that to Newt Gingrich‘s marriage(s). There’s a lot to work with. Even so, Mitt and Ann say they won’t touch it. Except you can’t help but notice, they are.

An ad released last week by Romney’s campaign is made up almost entirely of old home videos. “If I’m President of the United States, I will be true to my family…,” Romney says in the voice over.

Just before Thanksgiving at a town hall-style meeting in Iowa a woman asked Romney what distinguished him from the other Republicans running for the nomination. “Umm… The most extraordinary wife in the world,” he said, according to the Washington Post. This was just after Gingrich‘s campaign caught wind and his poll numbers started hovering around the same as Romney’s.

Then recently, Ann hosted a living room full of women in Iowa to talk about her husband. “He is there, he is steadfast, you can count on him,” she said, according to the New York Times. “He won’t abandon you in the hardest times.”

Ann then told the Times “I have fond feelings for both Newt and Callista,” adding, “And I am not going to make any judgment or any — I am never going to make any statement about that, on a personal level.”

Really?

    Bachmann Surges In Iowa. Moves ahead of Perry and within the margin of error of Mitt Romney.

    We are in sad sad times when being successful is mocked and being a great family in fidelity is pushed aside like some side show. Go Mitt. I’m tired of the campaign already. Come out of the gate swinging. God needs honorable people to work with NOW. The GOP has proven they are no better than the dems with Newt as a contender. Newt should be in jail.

    I don’t like Romney much, but how is Rhis saying “I will be true to my family” in a campaign ad an attack on Gingrich? He didn’t say “I will be true to my family, not like Newt.”

    Seriously, The Blaze is turning into the same kind of MSM outlet you get with all the rest.
