Gingrich Group Asks Romney To Help With Ad Errors

SPARTANBURG, S.C. (CBS4/AP) -- Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich  is asking a group that supports him to remove errors from a film it made about Mitt Romney's business experience - if Romney helps them figure out what is inaccurate.

Winning Our Future, the political action committee , sent Romney a letter asking him to respond to several questions about his tenure at Bain Capital, a private equity firm.

The PAC, run by Gingrich allies, says the questions will help clarify any errors in a film the group released this week assailing Romney's experience at Bain. The accuracy of some of the film's assertions have been called into question.

On Friday, Gingrich asked the group to either edit out any inaccuracies or take down the ad entirely.
