BETHLEHEM, N.H. — Mitt Romney is not explaining or apologizing for TV attack ads paid for by his allies that have damaged a chief rival’s political standing. On Thursday, he shrugged off Newt Gingrich’s complaints about the ads and Romney’s refusal to face him and defend the ads, which are largely financed by a heavily bankrolled group friendly to Romney.
“I’m not going to narrow this down to a two-person race while there are still a number of other candidates that are viable,” Romney said.
