Rick Santorum: "This Race Is A Long, Long Way From Being Over"

Gingrich: Romney Backers "Have A Vested Interest In Protecting The Old Order"
Chris Wallace: You have been going after what you call the elites in this country, and in fact you say they're hurting America...Who are the Republican elite, and how are they hurting the country sir?Newt Gingrich: Well, I think you can take a fairly large list of Romney's key supporters. They're the people who, in fact, operate inside the old order. They're the people who want to keep the old order comfortable. I want to change Washington, and I want to change it decisively. I've said publicy, I've made this a part of the campaign, I'd like to see all of the decision documents at Treasury and the Federal Reserve for the last three years published. Now, this goes back to the Bush administration. I'd like to find out why a Goldman Sachs got $13 billion through the back door from AIG from the American taxpayer. How was that decision made? Why did a Parisian bank get $19 billion from the U.S. taxpayer? Who was helped? Who wasn't helped and why?I think it is astonishing that you have a country in which enormous amounts of money have gone to very, very big institutions. The Dodd-Frank bill has actually increased the size of the largest banks -- the banks who were the problem. The Dodd-Frank bill is gradually crushing small independent banks. And yet the Washington power structure just seems incapable even of having hearings to look at this. And, frankly, if you look at the list of Romney's top fundraisers, they're all from Wall Street, they're all from the old establishment, they all have a vested interest in protecting the old order. And I think that's a mistake. We need to change Washington, not keep it in its current form.

Gingrich: "Massachusetts Liberal" Romney Has Policy Of "Carpet Bombing"
"Governor Romney has the ability to raise an amazing amount of money out of Wall Street, from Goldman Sachs to all the major banks. And he has a basic policy of carpet bombing his opponent. He doesn't build up Mitt Romney, he just tries to tear down whoever he's running against. And it has an affect. We're in a very tough campaign down here. Ironically, if you look at the three national polls this week, every place else the country that he can't carpet bomb, the ideas that I'm representing, the scale of change I represent, the conservative movement I represent, we actually have been pulling away from him in national polls," Newt Gingrich said on "FOX News Sunday" this morning.
"I think it is going to be close," Gingrich said about the Florida primary. "We had a poll a day before yesterday, we were tied. We have the two polls this morning that show that Santorum and I collectively are bigger than Romney. Romney beats me as long as we split the conservative vote. We have a tremendous effort underway to reach to conservatives to get them to see that the only effective way to stop a Massachusetts liberal from becoming our nominee is to vote for Newt Gingrich."

Hume: GOP Can Lose If Nominee Painted Successfully As An Extremist
"The majority of the public will decide it is time to make a change, then the only question is does the other party present an alternative that people feel is acceptable, a plausible president? Someone that they are not afraid to put in the White House. And this is where the dilemma for the Republicans becomes very clear," Brit Hume said on "FOX News Sunday" today.
"A lot of Republicans think Obama is so weak that they ought to nominate the most conservative person they can find because they can't lose. I think they can lose if they nominate somebody who can be successfully painted as an extremist or exotic character not worthy of the trust needed for the Oval Office. So, I think the argument that the president makes on class warfare, rich versus poor, and all that may rally his base but it's not going to win this election," Hume said.

Paul Ryan: "The President Isn't Leading" On Upcoming Fiscal Train Wreck
"The president isn't leading. The president isn't truthful with the American people about what kind of fiscal train wreck is coming, we're going to be. And we'll pass budgets to show the country exactly how we propose to fix the problem. You know the thing that is frustrating about this, Chris, is there is an emerging bipartisan census on fixing these big problems. There are Democrats who do agree with us on how to do tax reform. Get the loopholes out, lower the rates. We're getting a bipartisan consensus on Medicare reform. The problem is the president and his party leader are out on the left standing on the sidelines looking in. So what we clearly need is a new White House and a new Senate and then we can realize this emerging bipartisan consensus on how to fix these problems," Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said on "FOX News Sunday" this morning.

Romney On Gingrich: "He Is Not So Conservative"
"I do think that conservative values do play an enormous role and I do think the Speaker has explaining to do for sitting down on the sofa with Nancy Pelosi and arguing for climate change regulations, for calling the Paul Ryan plan right-wing social engineering. You're going to look at his record and say he is not so conservative, as a reliable conservative leader as people might have imagined. But, we'll get a chance to frame up the issues as time goes on. He had a very good week going after me on taxes and Bain and so forth, and a great confrontation with Juan Williams. That's hard to match in every single state," Mitt Romney said on "FOX News Sunday."

Romney Announces He Will Release Tax Returns This Tuesday
"Given all of the attention that is focused on tax returns, given the distraction that I think they became in these last couple of weeks. Look, I am going to make it clear to you now, Chris. I will release my tax returns for 2010, which is the last returns that were completed. I'll do it on Tuesday of this week. I'll also release at the same time an estimate for 2011 tax returns. So you'll have two years that people can take a good look at them. We'll put them on the website and you go through the pages," Mitt Romney said on "FOX News Sunday."
"This I think, we made a mistake in holding off as long as we did. It just was a distraction. We want to get back to the real issues in the campaign: Leadership, character and vision for America, how to get jobs in America and how to reign in the excessive scale of the federal government," he added.
