Funny How the happy newt didn't look so HAPPY after the Illinois vote. There was a reason he didn't campaign there.. He wanted to..but he is done. http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/03/21/us-usa-campaign-money-gingrich-idUSBRE82K09L20120321 (Reuters) - Votes aren't the only thing not adding up for Republican Newt Gingrich's struggling presidential bid: His campaign is officially in the red. At the end of February, the campaign had only $1.5 million in cash on hand while its debts totaled $1.6 million, filings with the Federal Election Commission showed on Tuesday. The Gingrich campaign brought in a modest $2.6 million in February, FEC filings showed. It spent $2.8 million and remained heavily in debt to about 90 individuals and companies for consulting, advertising, telemarketing and other services. ( NOTICE HE OWES LOTS OF MONEY>>>BUT ...) Nonetheless, the campaign paid Gingrich personally $156,360 for travel, according to Tuesday's FEC filing. In total, the campaign so far has paid Gingrich and his company, Gingrich Productions, $589,829. The payments to Gingrich and his companies had previously attracted FEC attention. At the time, his spokesman said Gingrich had to front some of his expense money and file for reimbursement because the campaign could not get a credit card. END. Of course he did...what is more important..paying off debt or paying yourself ? In a prior post I said this is how newt operated before...He thinks of himself..and this whole campaign is about future book sales..not making America better. He should never have been allowed to continue or even be in this race.He used peoples emotions for personal gain..and the states of SC and Georgia should have known better. this is nothing new...oh and THANK YOU JEB BUSH for formally endorsing MITT ROMNEY today. The KNOWING conservatives have seen enough.
I wonder how the newt people feel about newt taking their money and paying himself...?? A great gig if you can get it..just like Paul's nation wide fair well tour. Travel..good motels..fine food..visiting zoos..beaches..bar b que..
If the money he is taking in from his campaign is to cover expenses he had to take out of his own pocket, then he isn't really making profit now is he? So what are we upset about?
oh never mind ..Perry only spent a little over 9 million this election cycle and gave himself $ about $700,000 for his next governors run. You just cant see... it's only money FROM SOMEONE ELSE.
When the money train stops, it is time to get off. Time to go Newt Gingrich. Do not forgot to take your tremendous political baggage.
