Following a morning conference call by the Romney camp in which a series of former officials criticized Newt Gingrich for claiming to be the intellectual heir to Reagan, the Newt camp has set up their own rebuttal. From their email:
“Reagan national security advisor Bud McFarlane and Reagan biographer Craig Shirley will hold a conference call today at 11:00 am ET to clarify the truth about Speaker Gingrich’s relationship with and support for President Ronald Reagan.”
