Gingrich complained bitterly to Greta Van Susteren last night about the angry reaction by Republican insiders to his attacks on Mitt Romney for his business record at Bain capital.
“It seemed to be just fine to the establishment when I was the guy getting beaten up, because after all I’m the outsider, I’m the change agent who wants to break up their game.” he said.

Gingrich said that he found it “funny” that the same people who said nothing about the attacks on him are now rising up to defend Romney.
“For three weeks I said I was going to stay positive.” said Gingrich, adding that he called for Governor Romney to stop the negative attacks. “For three weeks he came back with sort of smart-aleck comments about having broad shoulders and taking the heat and all that stuff.” said Gingrich.
“All right now we’re in South Carolina, which is my country.” concluded Gingrich, “This is where as a Georgia conservative I have a pretty good idea how to campaign.”
