Ruby the Liberal

DOH! Mittens caught in a fib.

So Newt calls spanish "the language of the ghetto" and Mittens runs an ad about it, complete with "I'm Multiple Choice Mitt and I approved this ad".

Wolf Blitzer calls him on it, and he denies it.

Fast forward ~10 minutes of bickering and name calling over who is more "pro-immigrant" (in Florida? Whoda thought) and CNN fact checks it and calls him on it.

He immediately deflects, turns a slight shade of red, and rather than addressing it, turns to Newt and says "so, did you say that or not"?

You can't PAY for this kind of entertainment.

Newt is grabbing hold of this pedestal with this look on his face that, given the chance, he would just about pick it up and beat Romney with it as opposed to have to say another word to him.

so that he could get in a word edgewise, and Romney just lit another match.
