CLEVELAND - Among the faces in the crowd during Wednesday's Cleveland campaign stop by Republican presidential-hopeful Newt Gingrich was Rick Rottman, who looks so much like Gingrich that some people thought he was the actual Speaker of the House.

So what do you think? Do you see a resemblance?

Rottman, who is from Wooster, doesn't work at the Jergens factory where Gingrich spoke, but said he wanted to be at the event to support his candidate and his look alike.

Gingrich, the Republican presidential candidate was in Cleveland campaigning for Ohio’s primary on March 6.
