This talk show entails a representative from Reuters, Rhonda Schaffler, that interviewed John Mccain's former campaign advisor, Taylor Griffin. Griffin believes that if Gingrich's ads and tactics don't slow down Romney's war path, then Romney basically has the nomination ready for him on a silver platter. Gingrich had a strong outcome in South Carolina, obtaining 20% of the votes while Romney gained 29%. Griffin says that if Gingrich can't win Florida's primary, he is royally screwed. His view on Paul is an "anti-establishment candidate" which means that regardless of wanting to win or not, he's going to promote himself.
The talk show is Griffin's viewpoint on the election and being a former campaign advisor, he has experience with these kinds of things. The video was clearly showing that people should back Gingrich while bashing on Romney. Shaffler did not show any opinion or emotion on whether Griffin was right or wrong. Personally, I believe that everyone seems to be ganging up on Romney because of his moderate and sometimes flip flop stance. The Republican party needs to be united if they want to have a chance to take down the Obama machine, and that means that the nominee has to appeal to deep conservative voters, something Romney may not be able to do in the eyes of some. Will these attack ads work against Romney? You decide.
