ORLANDO, Florida - Newt Gingrich's campaign announced Tuesday it raised $5 million dollars in January on top of the $10 million raised last quarter, however aides would not indicate how much cash the campaign has on hand -- a critical number for determining whether they can make it through the summer as the former speaker has pledged to do.
This weekend the candidate told Bloomberg News that his campaign was down to approximately $600,000 cash on hand and spending money as quickly as they get it. Since then spokesman R.C. Hammond has said the candidate misspoke and the $600,000 was referring to the amount the campaign had entering the South Carolina primary and they have since raised $2.5 million in money bombs.
However, when pressed, Hammond was unwilling to give a figure for how much cash they have right now.
Gingrich dropped by a polling station at First Baptist Church of Windermere for his first stop on primary day, shaking hands with voters and swarmed by cameras. Mitt Romney has taken a double digit lead in polls leading up to Tuesday but Gingrich told reporter he didn't expect to "lose big" here.
That’s gonna get REAL expensive for someone.
GIVE ‘EM HELL NEWT!!!
Fair and balanced my happy A**!
Thank God. I could cry in relief.
Great post!
Georgia has more delegates than Florida.
Keep the faith. Rominee is not even close to the nomination.
Damn the lamestream and the establishment!
Rebellion is on and it’s ours!
Newt has the TEA PARTY!
Pray, work for Newt, vote for Newt, and send him money, whenever we can.

Thank you, onyx! Well said!
This is going all the way to Guam.
Yup, and the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa. 8^)
Newt has GOT to stay in this race!! I seriously don’t think I could march into the voting booth and vote for Romney. Our PA primary is April 20th....we are backing Speaker Gingrich, case closed! Romney, in my opinion will spend millions if necessary to win this GOP nomination. We have a fractured party and the Paul supporters are hungry for him as well!! But BHO has a billion dollar war chest to win a second term....it’s a frightening thought indeed!
Stay strong Newt, stay strong!
Newt knows that America hangs in the balance (Romney just wants the presidency for his church).
That is what this entire election is about, Romney has gone all in and that is a huge amount of $$$$$$$
Romney has an insatiable lust for the presidency. It’s for his church?
Heretofore, I thought it was to avenge his father and a sheer grab for power!!
Romney has unlimited funds available to purchase the presidency for the LDS.
Once they have it (knowing they can purchase it)...why would they ever let it go?
That's what I used to think, until this (confirmed BTW by ex-LDS and authoritative Freepers on LDS on thread)...
Mitt and the White Horse Prophecy (posted at FR)
I don't think that is true. Just because a person becomes a Catholic does not mean they put the Pope ahead of the County.
In fact, a dear friend of mine who is a devout Catholic thinks the Pope may be the AntiChrist.;-)
Newt is a patriot...opinions to the contrary are bullsh!t!
That's a lie and stop smearing the Pope!
And, if I understand it correctly, he REALLY takes orders from the Prophet (the Current Prophet, that is). He has taken sacred vows to do so and if he were to violate his vows...he would be rejecting his "church."
There are some serious authorities on LDS here at FR (some of which are ex-Mormons). LDS prophetic goals are a really big deal. A takeover of America is a really big deal to them!
Or so I have been told recently.;-)
I am just a lowly peasant...trying to spread the truth as I humbly know it.
I'm not sure if I'm offended because I'm Catholic, Italian, a Gingrich supporter or all three.
Did Florida originally have 100 delegates? I thought the GOP took half of their delegates away.
I see you don’t like Catholics
The same thing was said of Kennedy and it was BS then too.
He’s sure managed to bury the religion questions during this campaign, unlike in ‘08.
Guaranteed it won’t stay buried if he’s the nominee.
Hiding a big part of oneself in the closet makes one into a cardboard figure...like Romney.
That is my understanding.
That makes sense. He’s cardboard.
I have no explanation for his hate and lies. He’s just like obama. I will never vote for him.
This is the first time I have said it out loud...but, me too...I will never vote for Romney!
Right. He can GTH and take the GOP with him.
GO TEA PARTY!
Go NEWT!
Georgia has more delegates than Florida.
We’ll see if Fox or Gingrich are right here in an hour or so, won’t we?
What do you expect Newt to say? You gotta stay positive, even if you are losing. Otherwise, you might as well quit.
You do realize that the current President of Italy (Napolitano) is an atheist, btw.
In case you're wondering, I'm supporting the ONLY candidate willing to restore limited government, without partiality to one's personal confession.
Isn't that illegal?
I just listened to Romney's speech and I am sick!! We must
push on and not give up. Romney has no
chance against Obama and I have said I will never vote
for Romney and I haven't changed my mind.
This is the comment you made that I was replying to. Looks like your original Post was deleted by the Mods.
Apparently you believe that Newt thinks the Pope supersedes the Constitutional principles of the Founders. I have no idea where you get that from and your reply to me made no sense.
Vote Ron Paul if you like, but it just means another term for Obama and the end of the United States as we know it. At least you will have some great stories for the “What if Ron Paul Won” annual barbecue and tin hat beauty contest.
If memory serves, the character Clemenza was a Catholic, not a good Catholic, but a Catholic nonetheless. Might be time to change your handle to something less ethnic.
OMG. I forgot about Georgia. (Sorry Georgia.)
Thanks for brightening my day!
((((jaycee))))
We turned on a religious movie from Netlfix!
I can’t take anymore politics today.
God bless you extra, for enduring Romney.
Prayers for Newt and all of his supporters!
He has the Christian vote and the TEA Party although it’s likely the two corss over!
We need brightening!
GO TEA PARTY!
GO GEORGIA!
GO NEWT!
When Newt is on message,
He can’t be beat.
When he pouts and whines,
Voters turn and retreat.
Message, not money
The lesson is clear.
Will Newt remember?
That is not clear - - - -
Religion and ethnicity are meaningless in the 21st century US unless you are an unassimilated fool. A huge portion of our ancestral homeland is secular, hence the fact that it has an atheist president and the Church has had difficulty attracting men for a very long time. Italy ain't the Phillipines when it comes to Catholicism, and my Italian grandfather himself was an anti-clerical agnostic. 100 years ago, the Irish hierarchy was shocked at the lack of devotedness amongst Italian immigrants (especially the men) as compared to the Poles, Germans, etc.
I am a 21st century educated white American. I can choose to believe or NOT believe what I want. The fact is that our founders were no fans of the RCC due to its hostility to our founding principles. See my attenuated tag line as a case in point.
“The presidency is a dream come true for the LDS. And the LDS is RICH!!!”
I do know that a president Mitt would be a huge boon to Mormon evangelism. “Knock, knock. Hello Madam. We are Mormons, just like President Romney. Would you like to hear more about the exciting faith that helped Mitt make his $250 million and go onto become president?”
A friend was saying that the Mormons are a hierarchical church and that there are two levels above Mitt who basically can tell him to do anything and he is obliged as an underling. Is that true?
I was just commenting on your post regarding Gingrich.
I'm not sure what your motivation was in attacking his Faith, but please don't think I have an issue with your belief system. It really doesn't concern me.
Have a good evening my FRiend...
No one even mentions my choice Rick Santorum. Sigh...I do not like Newt’s whiny arrogance. There’s a reason he didn’t win vs Mitt and some of it has to do with his inability to raise enough money to fight. He also has a poorly organized team of advisors, JMO. I can’t warm up to him, sorry but I just can’t.
It will be interesting to see what the rest of the nation thinks so don’t bite my head off because I don’t agree with everyone’s love of Newt.
I hope that all of us will vote for the GOPer left standing in November, whoever it is. We have to eject the chimp in chief...anyone but obammmie!
All the states are experiments for the various GOP wannabes. It’s true, Newt hardly spent squat in Florida, while Mitt bought tons of sh*t, all aimed at Newt. That wasn’t true in South Carolina. But can Mitt buy that kind of sh*t in every state? Even across most of the South? Color me deeply skeptical. Especially when he tries to do it in Texas.
