Ezra Klein sets out a lot facts about the two candidates.
But let's remember the basic differences:
Mitt Romney is an opportunist of the classic sort: he calculates his positions as to how they will advance his short and long-term objectives.
Newt Gingrich is an unguided missile with grandiose ambition who flip-flops without regard to principle or long-term objective. He was for so many things before he was against them that he could keep an army busy trying to track them. Fortunately we have a lot of horse-race journalists who will do that for us.
But the Obama team should keep its eye on the ball: Romney - who is the inevitable nominee, and who - because he has not been in Congress - cannot be strangled with his party's record. - GWC
