Georgia Primary May Not Be A Gingrich Slam Dunk [VIDEO]

The Georgia presidential primary may not be a slam dunk for Republican hopeful Newt Gingrich, a congressman from the state for two decades.

Rival Mitt Romney is signaling that the biggest prize on Super Tuesday next month could be up for grabs.

Romney's swing into Georgia on Wednesday had Gingrich on the defensive. After Romney announced his visit, the Gingrich campaign rushed out a news release with word that Gingrich would be in the state next week.

Georgia is key to Gingrich's Southern strategy, which calls for him to rebound from five straight losses with a strong run in Dixie.

Romney finished third in Georgia's 2008 presidential primary. This time he has tapped into the deep pockets of metro Atlanta's business community.

Student tries to throw glitter at Romney in Denver

A 20-year-old college student tried to throw glitter on Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney as he greeted supporters in Denver following Colorado's caucuses.

Denver police said Wednesday that they charged Peter Smith with causing a disturbance, throwing a missile and unlawful acts. Smith is a student at the University of Colorado Denver.

Security pulled Romney back from the crowd and Smith was immediately whisked away Tuesday night.

Smith told Denver television stations that the attempted glitter bomb was worth it, though he worries he could be expelled from school.

"Glitter bombing" has been used by some activists to protest a politician's opposition to same-sex marriage.
