    Pro-Gingrich group hits Romney on Medicare fraud

    JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — A political action committee backing Newt Gingrich is opening up a new line of attack against Mitt Romney, questioning his connection to a company that paid a multimillion-dollar fine for Medicare fraud.

    Winning Our Future released a clip on Thursday of a seven-minute online documentary they plan to unveil on Friday labeled "blood money." It takes aim at the acquisition by Romney's private equity firm, Bain Capital, of the medical testing company Damon Corp.

    The company was reportedly fined more than $35 million and eventually went bankrupt.

    The clip features an exchange from Monday's debate in which Romney says he never did business with the government.

    The PAC's biggest contributor is a Las Vegas casino magnate whose family has given more than $10 million.

      You don't want to mention that the fraud occurred before the take-over and that it was part of the reason the company was failing in the first place? This article is an intentionally misleading article attempting to tie Romney with fraud -- a very false accusation. If you are going to publish junk news, then please put an icon of a trash can up front so I don't have to waste my time.

        Republicans generally don't have a prolem with 'junk news', or how else do you explain Fox News?

        One thing to note about this article...it is only reporting on a campaign strategy of one morally bankrupt republican against an elitist vulture republican...Stop blaming Yahoo for reporting what these losers are doing to each other, and they have no obligation to discredit it. Personally I don't know for a fact, but I believe your take on it, but it matters not to me as I wouldn't vote for either of these scuzzbags.

        It's worth noting for those of you out there who plan on voting for any candidate of the wrong party that Gingrich paid over $300,000 in fines for ethics violations from his glory days as Speaker, and of course the 'open marriage' thing for all you evangelical christians..and if you don't know what that means, it means your wife allows you to bang other women, and visa versa..yep that sounds pretty socially conservative to me too..

      This is a non-story. Romney was never personally implicated with this in any way.

        Dumb people saying dumb things and they are out of control. You notice Newt didn't have the guts to back up the slander of his own super pac.
