GOP primaries

A lot of Santorum’s hard-earned Iowa momentum has been lost after a rough week in New Hampshire.

Gingrich Tuesday intensified his attacks, saying Romney’s former firm’s business model was “indefensible” and calling some of its returns “suspicious.”

Huntsman, who needs a solid result in New Hampshire, predicted voters would be "stepping up and upending the conventional wisdom."

Sen. John McCain said the onslaught of attack ads from outside groups is a "real danger" to the eventual nominee.

The co-chairmen of President Obama’s fiscal commission on Monday commended GOP presidential hopeful Jon Huntsman for embracing the commission’s debt-reduction plan.

The fiscal commission's proposal, which was ignored by the president when it was released in late 2010, would cut nearly $4 trillion from the deficit over 10 years. It contains $1 trillion in new revenue increases that are anathema to many conservatives, however.

The plan contained $2.2 trillion in spending cuts and $700 billion in interest savings.

“We are not in the endorsement business — but surely we are in a commendation mode! Governor Jon Huntsman's endorsement of the Simpson-Bowles Fiscal Commission plan is a bold and courageous step in his support of real and honest fiscal reform,” former Wyoming Sen. Alan Simpson (R) and former Clinton Chief of Staff Erskine Bowles said.

A DNC Web ad released Monday spotlights what appear to be contradictory statements from Romney about ads attacking rival Gingrich.
