Newt Gingrich has a message for John McCain: Welcome to the 2012 race.

On Wednesday, a super PAC backing Gingrich welcomed McCain’s endorsement of former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney (R) by seizing on a Web ad, “Two Mitts,” that the Arizona Republican had run against Romney during the 2008 GOP nominating battle.

The spot juxtaposes clips of Mitt Romney stating contrasting positions on issues including abortion rights and gun control throughout his political career.

The salvo from the pro-Gingrich “Winning Our Future” super PAC comes as Gingrich is vowing to step up his campaign-trail attacks on Romney, who bested former senator Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) by eight votes in Tuesday’s Iowa caucuses. Romney is hoping to ride that momentum into New Hampshire, which holds its first-in-the-nation primary next Tuesday, Jan. 10.

But first he’ll have to contend with an offensive by Gingrich ...

I had a visual for this, Bruce Willis in "Die Hard" after he dropped the home made bomb down the elevator shaft saying, WELCOME TO THE PARTY, PAL!"

After all the attack ads Romney ran against Newt, it's time for a little payback.

I hope Freddie Net goes MEDIEVAL on Romulus.
It will elevate Santorum and lower Freddie Newt and Romulus.

Good ad, but why the kid-gloves on Obamacare? It seems like that, above all else, should be the theme that is drummed repeatedly. How about running something with these little snippets:

Obama admits his plan incorporates Romneycare

Axelrod states that Romneycare was template for Obamacare

Rumor has it that Juanito has a vendetta against Santorum for not endorsing him in the 2008 election. Apparently, Santorum begged Juanito for his endorsement for his 2006 Senate race, which Juan did, and in typical back stabbing fashion ole Rick endorsed the PROABORT Myth Romney over the PROLIFE McCain... payback a mofo..

Mitt has done pretty much the same to all of his conservative competitors: you don't think that the dirt supposedly on Cain came from the RATS, do you?

What about those ads against Perry, did they appear overnight as Perry shot to the top of the bunch when he entered?

Nope, no one has laid a glove on Mitt, it's now time - the media certainly isn't going to do it and the RATS want him as their "candidate to beat!"

Nope, they are saving all of their ammo against Mitt for the general. They want him to be the nominee. That’s why they have already started building their anti-Mitt operations in Iowa and elsewhere.

No, that's the same Mitt, hoser. Where's that picture of Mittens and the Swimmer yucking it up at the RomneyCare signing? If there were room at the signing, ol' Juan would have been there sticking it to conservatives.
