With a new infusion of money from casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, pro-Gingrich Super PAC Winning Our Future began running three new ads in four Super Tuesday states, CNN reports. There’s a 60-second ad which begins with voters talking about how they don’t relate to Romney before explaining why Newt’s their man. Then there’s a shorter 30-second version of the ad that just hits on voters not connecting to Romney. 

Lastly, there’s a minute-long cartoon attacking Romney as the establishment candidate without any real ideas. The ad portrays Romney sitting in a waiting room, holding a ticket while a TV announcer talks about Romney as the establishment’s candidate who is “next guy in line.” But, the ad says, “conservatives are fed up with the establishment picking the candidate for us.” Then Romney’s ticket to be the next president is whisked away by a breeze as the announcer says, “But as America rises up and speaks, Romney’s plans go out the window.”

Watch:

Winning Our Future is running ads starting Tuesday in Georgia, Oklahoma, Ohio, and Tennessee — the Super Tuesday states he’s put the most effort into thus far. They will begin running ads in additional states Wednesday.
