Newt Goes to Bat for Gary Johnson Over New Hampshire Debate

Supporters of former Gov. Gary Johnson of New Mexico are pushing hard to get their candidate included in a Republican presidential debate sponsored by the Washington Post and Bloomberg News to be held Tuesday night in New Hampshire -- and they are getting the support of one of Johnsons rivals for the GOP nomination.

Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich will be at the debate on Tuesday night and, on Monday, posted on his Twitter account that Johnson should also be there.

Fairness requires Governor Johnson to be included in tomorrows debate, wrote Gingrich. I encourage Wash Post/Bloomberg to invite him.
