But as long as its doable Im going to do it. Because I know that guys like Soros have been doing it for years, if not decades. And they stay below the radar by creating a network of corporations to funnel their money. I have my own philosophy and Im not ashamed of it. I gave the money because there is no other legal way to do it. I dont want to go through ten different corporations to hide my name. Im proud of what I do and Im not looking to escape recognition.

WOOT!!!! Love this man!

If there is no still-valid, stupid rule that forbids him to do this... that’s what I’d be deathly afraid of... then go go go go go go GO Mr. Adelson! That would give Newt (or Newt’s super-PAC boosters) a budget that could effectively counter the Romney sh*tstorms.

Bad news for the Newt supporters according to the latest article from RealClearPolitics.. this money will mostly benefit Mitt Romney's to claim the GOP nomination...
The Newt supporters are being set up for a big let down, you have been had, bamboozled, railroad...
So what ever your cause is will only help Mitt Romney now.
The time to wake up is now before it's to late before Adelson helps Mitt Romney buy and win the GOP nomination.
To: HiTech RedNeck
The way he could immunize himself (and more importantly, Newt) from such criticisms is to announce that he will match the highest fundraiser among the remaining candidates. So if Romney raises $5M, Adelson writes a check to Newt’s Super PAC for the same amount.
That said, Newt needs a lot more than that to properly counter all the mud Romney has already been slinging at him...

Hey, then at least he and Soros will find themselves on the same side. And after all that tooting about wanting to oppose Soros’ financial levers.

My friend, rather than post an article with a 3rd party’s meanderings about potential Adelson motivations, why not read the article posted and judge Mr. Adelson by his own words.

So Adelson gives money to Newt to Help Mittens. Mittens scorched earth left a bad taste in everyone mouth and his funds are drying up. Mittens went crying to Adelson looking for a hand out.
How much money did Adelson give Mittens. Nothing.
If mittens loses Michigan its over if he dont tap his own personal wealth.
