Romney aide: It's been a terrible week for Gingrich and a great week for us
COLUMBIA, South Carolina -- A senior Romney campaign official told BuzzFeed Saturday that he expects Newt Gingrich to beat them in the primary here -- but argued that the loss will make Romney stronger in November.
"I think we're going to lose tonight, we could lose big," the aide said, speaking on condition of anonymity. "But I think it's been a terrible week for Gingrich and a great week for us."
From the former Speaker's demonization of Romney's business record, to his decision to indignantly deflect criticism from his ex-wife, the aide said Gingrich has ensured that he won't win the Republican nomination.
"There’s always been a space for a candidate who kind of channeled anger in this," he said. "It was Michele Bachmann, for a while it was Herman Cain. It’s just that Gingrich hasn’t grown."
