Newt Gingrich explained at a town hall in Iowa why he didn’t try to rebut the Romney-backing Super PAC that he’s accused of lying about his record with his own ads.

“They will figure out new lies faster than I can communicate the truth,” he said. Gingrich added that he objects to “billionaire candidates who buy consultants” to lie about his record.
