Romney derides Newt's attacks on moderators

Mitt Romney portrayed Newt Gingrich as a rhetorical bully, today, suggesting that Gingrich’s decision to take the “easy” route of attacking the moderators — who cannot respond — does not prove that he could stand up to President Obama.

“It’s very easy to talk down a moderator,” Romney said today on Fox and Friends. “The moderator asks a question and then has to sit by and take whatever you send to them. And Speaker Gingrich has been wonderful at attacking the moderators and attacking the media.”
