Mitt Romney (R-The Missus) has launched a TV spot in Iowa that takes a not-so-subtle swipe at chief rival Newt Gingrich (R-Three Missuses).
From NPR’s It’s All Politics blog:
New Mitt Romney Iowa Ad Makes Claim Newt Gingrich Can’t: One Marriage
Mitt Romney had a handy counterargument for all those who have called him a political flip flopper: his apparent steadfastness in all his personal commitments, like his 42-year marriage to his wife Anne.

The spot:
The hardworking staff’s favorite line:
I think people understand that I’m a man of steadiness and constancy.
Uh-huh.
Not to get technical about it, but isn’t that the thing people don’t understand about you, Mitt?
Imagine how many wives Mitt would have had if he led his personal life the way he does his political one…flip…flop?
Good point, Al.
