Mitt Romney would like to remind everyone that one time Newt Gingrich sat on a couch very close to Nancy Pelosi, and that Al Gore was involved. In a new attack ad, the Romney campaign highlights footage from a bipartisan commercial starring Gingrich and Pelosi for Gore’s “liberal Global Warming agenda,” which aims “to push job-killing climate change legislation.” The spot asks, “With friends like Newt, who needs The Left?” Romney, who was also known to have loved him some “progressive” ideas back in the day, wrote in his book No Apology, “I believe that climate change is occurring. The reduction in the size of global ice caps is hard to ignore. I also believe that human activity is a contributing factor.”
