Newt Gingrich: President Barack Obama

Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney Dept: As Newt Gingrich, the former speaker of the House of Representatives, and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney blast each other ahead of their second debate this week, they are still finding time to dismiss Obama as a failed president. The two are locked in a fierce contest for Florida, which holds its primary election on Tuesday and is the largest and most diverse of the state-by-state nominating contests so far, according to The Star. Obama, meanwhile, is trying to use the momentum from his annual State of the Union address to Congress on Tuesday in the second of a three-day, five-state tour in politically key states and wASHINGTON The top two Republicans battling for the nomination to challenge President Barack Obama in November prepared for another rowdy debate Thursday night, while Obama continued his string of campaign-style appearances at the other end of the country. The Republicans are looking for direction after the three states that have voted have picked three different winners. In Florida, with its large media markets and significant Hispanic population, Romney and his allies have seized a staggering advantage in the television ad wars as they try to reclaim his front-runner status. They have reported spending $14 million combined on commercials many critical of Gingrich, who has rode his feisty debate performances to lead in polls. The Romney camp s ad spending is at least seven times the investment made by Gingrich and an organization supporting him. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
