What a total joke.

$50 for a picture?

This guy needs to save some self respect.

That is a common practice at fundraising events, except the numbers a bigger.

This has made FrontPage news on FR. The ground has begun to shake.

This is by far the most quixotic presidential campaign in history. When a candidate loses elections one after the other garnering 7% to 8% of the vote in some cases, he’s way down in the polls, opens up a 60-point negative gender gap with women, and doesn’t have a prayer in hell of even getting the majority of delegates in at least five states to have his name placed in contention for nomination, that candidate does the honorable thing and quits. And I’m talking about Bachman, Cain, or Perry. They all had the common decency to withdraw Yes, we got Romney because of Gingrich. Had Romney lost his home state MI (where he won by 3% of the vote, with Gingrich siphoning off 7%) this contest would have been over. And if not MI if Romney had lost OH where he beat Santorum with under 1% of the vote with Gingrich ferreting 14% of the vote, Romney’s candidacy would have been in ashes. And instead, we may have been talking about a Santorum-Gingrich ticket. Yet this was the dream that was not to be.

Finally, people will (hopefully) awaken to the Gingrichian fraud this has been all about.

Oy vey.

This is what I was trying to warn you all about. Newt can only be about newt. He is too personally needy to put the country or even a wife before his own desires. He needed to drop out and fight Romney. Instead, he is helping Romney, just to get attention and now to pimp his pretty little self for photo money.

newt math: kids, how many $2.50 gallons of gas would it take to pay for one photo of you with Newt Gingrich?

I was there - great speech on energy and independence. Line of the night was about him debating 0bambi without a teleprompter.

Ah, Newt.. don`t lower your standing further.

Pathetic...truly sad, final downfall of what was once a hopeful campaign.

Newt is not your guy I get it. If your guy did the same thing there would be no problem.

Really the folks finding this funny are doing themselves nor their candidate any favors.

If anyone really thinks most folks supporting Newt are suddenly going to support another candidate because he is getting a few bucks from some pics are wrong.
