An independent group supporting Newt Gingrich has received another substantial contribution from billionaire casino owner Sheldon Adelson and will launch TV ads in seven states this week, a source close to the group confirmed Monday.
The source, who requested anonymity to speak freely, did not confirm the amount of the contribution but called it substantial and at least on par with two $5 million donations Adelson and his family have given previously. The group, known as Winning Our Future, will launch TV ads Tuesday in Georgia, Oklahoma, Ohio and Tennessee, with more to come Wednesday in Mississippi, Alabama and Kansas.
Judging from the independent PACs new ad buy, the group is following the same strategy. The ads focus on attacking Romney, portraying him as an establishment candidate and someone whom voters dont trust or like. The ads also portray Gingrich as a true conservative and the best alternative to Romney.

“Judging from the independent PACs new ad buy, the group is following the same strategy. The ads focus on attacking Romney, portraying him as an establishment candidate and someone whom voters dont trust or like.”
I approve of this focused strategy against Willard the Liberal.
Go Newt!
BEAT WILLARD DOWN DOWN DOWN !!!
You sounded great in Tennessee today.
(Love it when you take it to Obama)
Is this new money?
Congrats, Naps, for congratsing Newt!!! You’re cute :)
It’s the confirmation of the rumored money, yes.
It was just announced at 630 pm Eastern tonight, so I think it is the newest contribution, the one they were talking about a few days, but weren’t sure of...
Thought Romney was running attack ads against Santorum in Tenn. Was I wrong?
Bad news for Mittens and the GOP-e.
Maybe why Gingrich feels positive about the south. Have to tell you I have blogged my fingers off all over the internet for Newt. Prayers going UP that he does exceptionally well in the south!
GO NEWT!
Are these pro Newt ads then? Where is the thirty minute ad being played?
I hope Newt can make a comeback. If Santorum is the nominee, the GOP going to lose in a landslide.
Willard Flopney aka Obama-Lite runs attack ads against ALL CONSERVATIVES opposing him since 2007.
It’s his thing, I guess.

3 things in politics
-people
-money
-the brains to know what to do with the first two.
Romney had to out-spend the others 10 to 1 to come in 2nd in Iowa. He has had to out-spend in every race. So does his campaign have the brains to know what to do with the money?
And does the Newt campaign have the brains to know what to do with the money?
Too often campaign staff salaries are based on a percentage of the media buy. So the staff that creates the media campaign is more interested in the size of the buy than the effectiveness of the buy.
Mazel Tov!
I am just going to take this opportunity to point outcries Sheldon is a nice Jewish boy and should be held up as an example when idiots post that “the Jooooos” are all stupid liberals.
