Barbour Voted for Gingrich

In what First Read calls “another gut punch” for Mitt Romney, former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour (R) told ABC News that he voted for Newt Gingrich last week in his state’s GOP primary.

Said Barbour: “I didn’t endorse anybody. I didn’t want to try to influence anybody’s vote, so beforehand I didn’t say who I voted for. But Newt and I have been friends a long, long time… Out of friendship, I voted for Newt.”
