North Carolina super PAC attacks Gingrich and Romney, touts Santorum

A North Carolina-based super PAC launched two TV ads worth this week supporting Rick Santorum in the Republican presidential primary.

Keep Conservatives United is the brainchild of Bob Harris, the legendary research for Jesse Helms' Congressional Club. He loaned his super PAC $14,000 in March to fund the advertising, according to federal campaign finance reports.

The first 30-second spot, above, hits Newt Gingrich for his marital affairs. (Key line: "An affair because you worked too hard. Sit down, Newt.") And the second ad, below, hits Mitt Romney on the issue of healthcare, saying he can't attack the president on Obamacare because of his Massachusetts record. (Key line: "Mitt Romney and Barack Obama stole people's freedom with their mandates.")
