Romney Lowers Expectations

After a poll released earlier this week showing Rudy Giuliani erasing his lead in New Hampshire, Mitt Romney's campaign "appeared to try to lower expectations yesterday," the Boston Globe reports.

An internal memo from strategist Alex Gage: "By no means do we expect to win both Iowa and New Hampshire -- no Republican in the modern era ever has."

However, the Wall Street Journal notes Giuliani has not yet run campaign ads "while lesser-known Romney has spent at least $10 million on TV in Iowa, New Hampshire, Florida and South Carolina." He's spent $1.7 million on ads in the Granite State alone.
