Newt Gingrich Ad Bashes Mitt Romney For Moderate Views, French-Speaking Abilities

by at .

Newt Gingrich is just throwing $h!t at the wall at this point.

During his college years in the '60s, Mitt Romney spent two years as a Mormon missionary in France. Now, Newt is trying to use that time against his rival as part of his desperate, scorched-earth campaign for the Republican presidential nomination.

Here's his new ad, titled "The French Connection" ...

The crux of the ad - that Mitt Romney isn't too different politically from failed Democratic Massachusetts presidential hopefuls Michael Dukakis and Sen. John Kerry - might've been effective, but Newt is clearly just bitter at this point.

In a parting shot, the voiceover explains: "Just like John Kerry," the voice in the ad says, "he speaks French too!" Mitt Romney: He's ... multilingual!

Guess he and Jon Huntsman are automatically DQ'd in Newt's mind.

    I WISH GINGRICH WOULD HANG HIMSELF IN HIS CLOSET, NEXT TO HIS SKELETONS.

    Gingrich simply is tuning into the natural tendency of conservatives to be wary of anyone that speaks a foreign language better than they speak their native tongue. He's playing the "They ain't like us" gambit.

    Instead of continuously criticizing your political opponent, why Not shout out loud and clear your intentions for being a presidential candidate. It seems that you win by announcing your intentions instead of trying to keep up with the pitfalls of your competitor. And I am just saying!!
