Mitt Romney Flip-Flops About Seeing Super PAC Ads Attacking Newt Gingrich (VIDEO)
GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney made one of the rapidest possible reversals at a debate Sunday morning, when he claimed not to have seen anti-Newt Gingrich super PAC ads, just seconds before explaining what he had seen in one of the ads.
“With regards to their ads, I haven’t seen them,” Romney said, after being implored by Gingrich to “calmly and directly” take some responsibility for spots that the former Speaker of the House alleged were “untrue.”
But moments later — in the same response, in fact — Romney made it clear that he hadn’t told the entire truth.
“The ad I saw said that you’d been forced out of the speakership. That was correct,” Romney said.
