Democrats Attack Romney, Not Gingrich
"The Democratic National Committee has handicapped Tuesday's presidential primary in Florida and come to the conclusion that Mitt Romney is the likely winner or the bigger threat," says the Miami Herald.
"On a conference call with reporters Thursday, Democratic political consultant Freddy Balsera of Miami and state Rep. Darren Soto, D-Orlando, spent 20 minutes blasting Romney for his shifting position on the DREAM act, his "anti-immigrant" rhetoric, and his "ridiculous" suggestion that the solution to illegal immigration is that people will "self deport." Never once did they mention his Republican rivals, particularly former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who is running in a virtual dead heat with the former Massachusetts governor in recent polls."
