“I think we’re about to find out if Sheldon Adleson is willing to throw away money like the people in his casinos.”
Of course he is willing especially if he really wants Mitt to win. By singlehandely keeping Newt’s campaign alive he is assuring Rick dosesn’t level a death blow to the Mitt campaign, which would have been the case in Ohio if Newt had not been a contender.
This is where I question Newt’s integrity (and I voted for him before I knew this)...We have to wonder is he staying in as the spoiler for Mitt or Rick? Is Mr. Adleson’s money actually an indirect contribution to the Mitt campaign? Why else would he donate to a candidate that is showing he has no chance at getting the nomination?
If Newt joins forces with Rick then I can admit I was wrong, but until then I’m thinking that Newt’s desire to stay in can only be to help Mitt.

Newt really believes he’s the best one for the country (which he is), he badly wants to win this, and there’s some pretty obvious bad blood between him and Mittens over MR’s dirty tactics which threw him for a loop in the FL debates. His eyes were flashing with genuine anger over that.
