AP: We Goofed On Gingrich

The Associated Press erroneously reported in an April 17 story that former House Speaker Newt Gingrich predicted Hillary Clinton would easily defeat New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani in this year's New York Senate race.

Gingrich said Clinton had "a very good chance" of beating Giuliani and added, "If I were guessing right now, I would say she probably has the edge to win."

The story also erroneously reported that Gingrich said Texas Gov. George W. Bush needs to bring in more experienced advisers to run his presidential campaign. Gingrich did say that Bush's team "still has a little bit of Austin in their style" and is "not quite up to speed yet" in running a national campaign.
