Setting A New Tone: Newt Apologizes To Ryan
Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich apologized to Rep. Paul Ryan on today after panning Ryan’s Medicare plan as “right-wing social engineering.” Gingrich and Ryan traded emails and spoke on the phone, a call that “went really well,” Gingrich’s spokesman Rick Tyler said. Gingrich explained he wanted to set a new tone in Washington and in politics. “"I want to set a precedent for new kinds of presidential campaigns," said Gingrich. "I made a mistake and I called Paul Ryan today, who's a very close personal friend, and I said that." Sean agreed. “I thought what Newt said about right-wing social engineering was wrong. But now that Newt has apologized can we go back to pointing out Obama’s failed policies?” said Sean. “Every candidate is going to go through this,” Sean explained, “every candidate makes a mistake now and then.”

Santorum: McCain Doesn't Understand Interrogation
Likely presidential candidate Rick Santorum today said he was trying to discuss U.S. policy and not Sen. John McCain's personal experience when he said yesterday that the former POW doesn't understand the effectiveness of waterboarding and other tough interrogation techniques. Santorum found himself in hot water after his comments started a firestorm of controversy. Former longtime McCain adviser Mark Salter fired back at Santorum via Facebook, writing, “Ron Paul may be the wackiest candidate in the GOP field. But for pure, blind stupidity, nobody beats Santorum. In my 20 years in the Senate, I never met a dumber member, which he reminded me of today," Salter wrote. Santorum, who called in to speak with Sean via the NewsMaker Hotline, offered an apology to McCain. “No one understands torture, or interrogation better than John McCain. I was not talking obviously about his experience but on a policy disagreement. McCain believes enhanced interrogation does not get to usef ul information and I believe it does.” You can listen to Sean’s entire interview with Santorum by clicking here.
