Pro-Gingrich super PAC places big radio buy in six states
WaPo ^ | 022912 | Aaron Blake

The top super PAC supporting Newt Gingrich is going up with nearly $900,000 worth of radio ads in six key states holding contests in the next two weeks.

The Winning Our Future ad buy appears to come on the heels of another significant cash infusion from casino mogul Sheldon Adelson and gives Gingrich the kind of presence on the airwaves that he hasn’t had on Super Tuesday, which could be a make-or-break moment for his struggling campaign.

According to figures provided to The Fix by a media buy, the super PAC bought $238,000 worth of ads in Georgia, $235,000 in Ohio, $172,000 in Tennessee and $98,000 in Oklahoma. It is also buying in two Southern states holding primaries a week later — $92,000 in Alabama and $32,000 in Mississippi.

Its time for Newt’s Third Army to take Bastogne ... against the frigid storms of winter, just like General Washington won his victory at Trenton ...

Wow! That’s great news! I will skip over and check it out.

Why is it that somehow I think Drudge believes it must help Romney in some way, to run a spotlight on one of his opponents. Something about this divided field.......?
I dunno.

going there now.

Thanks. Rita
