Column #4: "Newt’s right on SuperPAC ‘lie’ "

Marin describes Newt Gingrich's attack on Mitt Romney, claiming that Romney is associated with the SuperPAC campaign attack ads that destroyed his campaign.  With SuperPACs, "allegedly 'independent' political action committees capable of raising unlimited amounts of money to promote or destroy candidates", candidates can viciously attack other candidates without getting their own name stained.  These are legal as well as separate, non-profit, companion organizations that pour money into SuperPACs with their donors kept a secret.
