In this segment of a debate between the candidates, we focus on two topics. One
being the recent claim of Gingrich's wife saying that he's having an affair,
during the campaign. Gingrich claimed to be appalled for them to start the
debate on such topic. He then later claims it completely false and is not true.
The other major topic at hand was tax returns. A reporter asks the candidates
"When exactly will you release your tax returns?" Gingrich answers seriously "a
hour ago." The crowd rose up and applauded, as Santorum follows up saying that
he had a bad time writing the check out and guarantees he paid a higher
percentage than Romney. Romney is basically left speechless when asked directly
by the reporter. Saying that he'll release it in April when it comes out, which
is a bs excuse because by then he'll manage to scoop up a few more
primaries and it wouldn't even matter.
Personally I feel as though both Santorum and Gingrich is now going
to snatch the lead away from Romney despite what others have said. Yahoo news is
now claiming the win in South Carolina for Gingrich probably wouldn't even
matter, which says a lot about how the authors at Yahoo news feels. But besides that, the audience seemed to
really enjoy Santorum and Gingrich's response. Will these tax returns really affect anything? Or is it just idle chit chat? You decide.
