FT. MEYERS, FL. -- Flush with a new $5 million donation from the wife of Vegas casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, a pro-Gingrich super PAC today made a $6 million ad buy in Florida and launched an ad attacking rival Mitt Romney as a moderate by using his own words against him. 
 
 "I'm not a partisan Republican," Romney says in a previous interview featured in the Gingrich ad. "I'm someone who is moderate. My views are progressive." 
 
 The ad, which will air throughout Florida in advance of its pivotal primary next Tuesday, focuses on Romney's embrace of a government mandate for people to buy health insurance when he was the governor of Massachusetts. 
 
 "Those who follow the path that we pursued will find it's the best path," Romney says in an old interview on NBC's "Meet the Press." "And we'll end up with a nation that's taken a mandate approach." 
 
 And in a moment the Romney campaign would rather forget, President Obama is shown praising him for the state's health plan, which served as a model for the one Obama later championed and which is now anathema to conservative primary voters. "I agree with Mitt Romney, who recently said he's proud of what he accomplished on health care," Obama is shown saying in the ad, which also displays a 2011 Wall Street Journal headline that says, "Romney: Obama's Running Mate." 
 
 Ryan Williams, a spokesman for Romney, went after the veracity of the attacks in a statement, targeting both Gingrich and the PAC for an alleged inability to "tell the truth." 
 
 
 
 "Speaker Gingrich has demonstrated that he can't tell the truth about his unprecedented ethics reprimand, his resignation in disgrace at the hands of his own party, and his work as a highly paid Washington lobbyist for Freddie Mac. It's not a surprise that his allies can't tell the truth either," Williams said. 
 
 This is the first ad buy in Florida for Winning Our Future, which spent more than $4 million in attack ads aimed at Romney in South Carolina during the 10 days before its primary Saturday. 
 
 
 
 The new ads are designed to help blunt attacks on Gingrich's record being financed by the Romney campaign and the pro-Romney super PAC, Restore our Future, which has already spent more than $4.4 million in ads in the state.

 He goes on to say that, “it may make me more normal than somebody who wanders around seeming perfect and maybe not understanding the human condition, and the challenges of life for normal people.” (Dig at Romney???) 
 
 The interview was done Tuesday morning in Tampa, Fla. Watch the clip below along with the full transcription.

 Some may scratch their heads wondering how and why Newt Gingrich could be resonating with a wide swath of evangelicals but it’s a fact. That was proven to be true in South Carolina and if he wins in Florida it will be in large part to evangelicals who are working tirelessly behind the scenes to spread the good word about Newt. There will be a big pastor conference call this week and many more evangelical-type events including some church appearances. 
 
 If you want to understand specifically why many evangelicals are flocking to Newt (excuse the pun), read my detailed analysis here. 
 
 Newt Gingrich on the Forgiveness of Evangelicals. 
 
 David Brody: I’m curious; when I talk to evangelicals they bring up the word forgiveness. They say you know what, the media wants to bash you for the past, for some of the marital issues of the past, but yet, when I talk to evangelicals, they’re like been there, done that, regarding forgiveness. And that is very important. What does that say to you? The sentiment of forgiveness from evangelicals? 
 
 Newt Gingrich: Well, I think it’s important. It’s also important that they recognize that I have not hidden from the facts of my life, that I have confessed my weaknesses, and that I have had to go to God for forgiveness and for reconciliation. And I think most people can identify, either with themselves or with loved ones, that life has moments that are very sad, you wish wouldn’t have occurred. And you look back on them and you seek forgiveness for not having done everything you could have. 
 
 So, I think in that sense, it may make me more normal than somebody who wanders around seeming perfect and maybe not understanding the human condition, and the challenges of life for normal people.
– Newt Gingrich's super PAC is jumping into the Florida mudslinging contest, with an ad bashing Mitt Romney over his role in helping to devise mandate-based health care. The Winning Our Future PAC, riding high thanks to a $5 million donation from the wife of Vegas casino owner Sheldon Adelson, has bought $6 million worth of air time for a new ad tying Romney to President Obama, using past Romney quotes like, "I'm someone who is moderate. My views are progressive," CBS reports. And what's worse than being a moderate? Being faithful to your wife. In an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network, Gingrich painted his marital problems as a plus, even turning it into a subtle dig against Romney. "I think most people can identify," he said. "It may make me more normal than somebody who wanders around seeming perfect and maybe not understanding the human condition, and the challenges of life for normal people."
