But, to defend Gingrich, he said "the language of [i]a[/i] ghetto".  By that, he could mean that it is disadvantageous to speak a language that is only widely used in your local neighborhood and therefore limits job opportunities in the rest of your town or city.  In that sense, he is using the term "ghetto" like a sociologist or political scientist would.

Gingrich tried to explain himself in similar terms, although he didn't admit to using the term "ghetto". But, I wasn't really commenting on the accuracy of the commercial. I was laughing at Romney denying that he had seen the commercial and then being told by Blitzer that the commercial ended with Mitt saying, "I'm Mitt Romney and I approved this message". I immediately thought of the above scene from Austin Powers.

By the way, this is at least the second time that Romney has lied about a commercial during a debate. I started a thread in this forum regarding an earlier incident in which Romney claimed not to have seen a commercial but then went on to describe the commercial almost word for word.
