The Republican presidential race in New Hampshire has entered its final full day before Tuesday’s primary, the first in the nation. The leading candidates appeared in two debates over the weekend. Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich accused front-runner Mitt Romney of being too moderate.
Newt Gingrich: “There’s a huge difference between a Reagan conservative and somebody who comes out of the Massachusetts culture with an essentially moderate record, who I think will have a very hard time in a debate with President Obama.”
Former Senator Rick Santorum targeted Ron Paul over his record in Congress.
Rick Santorum: “The serious issue with Congressman Paul here is, you’re right, he’s never really passed anything of any import. And one of the reasons people like Congressman Paul is his economic plan. He’s never been able to accomplish any of that. He has no track record of being able to work together. He’s been out there on the margins and has really been unsuccessful in working together with anybody to do anything.”
