Newt Gingrich raised about $2.1 million for his presidential campaign this quarter and spent nearly $1.8 million, according to reports filed with the Federal Election Commission. He ended the period with slightly more than $300,000 cash on hand.
Among the disbursements: $8,400 to Gingrich Productions, a Washington, D.C.-based company that lists Callista Gingrich, the candidate's wife, as president. Gingrich spokesman R.C. Hammond said the campaign paid Gingrich Productions for use of the domain name Newt.org. The Federal Election Commission requires that campaigns apply fair market value to such transactions.

How the mighty have fallen. He was a good man once. Now he is a sad clown.
Too bad.
I think she is trying to get the circumferences of their eyes to average out . . .
Wasted a lot of money on private jets.
From Hero To Zero.
Wasted a lot of money on private jets.
After all he’s Newtus Agustus. Why would he fly in the mob section like the rest of us.
That’s even worse that Bachmann dismal 4.2 million.
None of these people are going to be the nominee, it’s going to be either Perry or Palin.
I’m guessing Gingrich is hanging in there long enough to who-do some suckers into donating enough money to pay off his campaign debt, so he won’t have to pay it out of his personal pocket.
He would have to sell a lot of videos and books to pay off that debt.
Newt’s a toot.
I’ve heard of “crazy eyes” are those what “crazy eyes” are?
Newt needs to take his old sorry out of touch rear end and go home. Take McLame with you too.
Well actually Bachmann's quarterly haul was about the same as Newt's once you consider she had to tap her Congressional stash to boost her apparent take. That Bachmann "money machine" meme seems to be taking a nose dive.
Source for my comments for the casual reader whose google button is broken:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann raised about $2 million for her campaign in the second quarter, plus $2 million shifted from her congressional account, a Republican source told CBS News
Who in their right mind would waste even one dollar on a campaign donation to this epic FAIL?
$8,400 for the domain name newt.org?
nonewt.com is available for $7.99 at GoDaddy. That’s probably a better keyword, too.
Move over Obamajoker...you got competition!!!
AP chimes in....Newt 1 million in campaign debt.
