Ron Paul has drawn heat in recent days for attacking Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich -- while giving Mitt Romney the kid gloves treatment. Pauls team unveiled a new ad which attacks all three candidates, hitting Gingirch as a serial hypocrite, Santorum as a counterfeit conservative and Romney gets labeled as a flip-flopper.

While Georgia -- which holds its presidential primary on Tuesday -- looks solidly behind favorite son Newt Gingrich, Republican presidential rival Mitt Romney is looking to do well in the delegate-rich Peach State.

Mitt Romney had a close call on Tuesday, but he held on to beat Rick Santorum in the Michigan presidential primary and blew out the field in Arizona --a state that Democrats would love to pick up in November.
