Another Debate

There was a GOP debate last night in Des Moines, Iowa, and Gingrich is widely thought to have come through it in good shape. That is the consensus of a Politico article and another by RealClearPolitics.

Romney didn't have a particularly good night. He harassed Newt about being a "career politician" to which Newt replied to Mitt:

The only reason you didn't become a career politician is you lost to Teddy Kennedy in 1994,

Ouch! That was the same year Newt's Contract with America swept more than 50 new Republicans into the House of Representatives.
