Now I think Iowa's going to be a challenge, because you have everybody firing away simultaneously in a relatively small market. And so I think it's going to require two weeks of me going around, telling the truth, letting people look at the negative ad, look at the<br/> truth, and decide do they really want to give their vote to somebody who's not telling the truth."<br/> With the first nominating contest in Iowa less than three weeks away, Gingrich leads Mitt Romney among Republican voters nationwide by 28 percent to 18 percent.<br/> Travis Brecher, Reuters
