Title: As Romney Steps Cautiously, Gingrich Duels With Others


LAST ENTRY HERE in Huntsman has an opinion!;;

"Newt Gingrich did not escape sharp questions about his record in and out of government and his ability to defeat President Obama."

The heat turns up on Gingrich, as the final punches are thrown before the nominating contest begins. Apparently Romney, is a little quieter than usual. He failed to throw any hard questions toward his rival this time.

Lately, now that the Iowa Caucus is near, candidates are being careful, trying to make sharp their tongue but smooth their actions; not wanting to turn off voters from their side. Throughout the debates, the republicans have been receiving questions based on their weaknesses, on what they plan and do not plan to do in the future, and it's been hardball ever since the beginning.

Romney decided to keep his attention directed toward President Obama.

"...The same was not true of the rest of the field, who have limited time to change the campaign’s dynamic."
