McCain and Huckabee vs. Romney

Mitt Romney found himself under fire from two Republican rivals vying for more conservative supporters. John McCain attacked Romney's changing stance on abortion, while Mike Huckabee criticized Romney's inconsistent support of the Iraq War. Romney countered by highlighting McCain's "liberal" immigration policy, and Huckabee's criticism of Bush Administration foreign policy. Romney was making a strong push for winning the New Hampshire Primary, after suffering a defeat in the Iowa Caucus.
