No! I would have slammed him myself. Ten times harder and especially on his scummy business ethics, or lack there of.

Newt is not attacking from the Left. He is attacking from the Conservative, PRO-Capitalist, ANTI-CRONY-CAPITALIST Right. Romney is not now and never has been a Capitalist. We should all be thanking Newt and the PAC for outing Romney before it is too late!

The reason why Romney is a poor candidate is because he is everything that the Leftists so wrongly claim that the Republicans are. He is a son of wealth who has used his family's wealth and power to increase the wealth of himself and a small cadre of investors at the expense of the larger society. He is by definition not a capitalist, he is a corporatist.
It is highly beneficial that we as conservatives and free-marketeers expose him now before he becomes the nominee.

"Conservative, PRO-Capitalist, ANTI-CRONY-CAPITALIST Right. Romney is not now and never has been a Capitalist."

Crony capitalism is when corporations are intertwined with government and the government favors them over everyone else. Think GM, GE and Solyndra. Using that commonly accepted definition, how is Bain Capital participated in Crony Capitalism?

Conservatives don't hate wealth. They don't hate someone who was born wealthy. That is the democrat party.
