Gingrich tones down his Iowa campaigning

Newt  Gingrich is crisscrossing Iowa, albeit at a much slower pace than his rivals. It's a pace reminiscent of earlier caucus campaigns when candidates visited county fairs, walked in local parades and stopped at diners to meet real Iowans.

“I'm listening to people,” says Gingrich.

This soft approach follows the much-publicized shakeup of his campaign and is a direct contrast to his rivals, who are doing “a lot of frantic organizing for the Ames straw poll” Aug. 13, Gingrich told a lunch gathering of 50-plus Linn County Republicans.
