This is about denying Romney the nomination. Newt almost certainly can't get enough delegates to win outright. The point is to vote for Newt so that Romney doesn't win first place, loses delegates, and a floor fight at the convention determines the nominee. What Newt is doing with his donor list is utterly meaningless to this goal and irrelevant to this thread.

For Gingrich to pull out any shot of winning any more delegates, he needs cash. Since he’s already 4.5 million dollars in the hole, he needs to raise around 10 million dollars in the next 30 days to pay down his debt and buy any kind of media. He has no superpac funding and little if any money coming in, so he is renting his donor list, which is the last desperate act of ANY politician in a campaign because it PUTS OFF potential donors who don’t want unsolicited donor requests. Renting your donor list is primarily used to pay off existing campaign debt.
But sure, it has NOTHING to do with the campaign. You’re political acumen is top-notch, sport. Don’/t quit your day job.
