Newt Gingrich’s campaign is clearly frustrated by a multi-million dollar flood of negative ads produced by a Super PAC supporting Mitt Romney. According to Wall Street Journal Reporter Jonathan Weisman, Gingrich spokesman RC Hammond responded to a recent claim by Romney that he is personally against Super PACs thusly: “He’s either a lying politician or a piece of shit.”

Updated: Weisman appears to have taken the Tweet down.
