Gingrich 110

Paul 10

More than 10x the amount for the guy w/84 ethics violations who lacks self control so much so that he's on wife #3

What bias? Ugh.

Well, Ron hasn't really kept himself in the news, and a lot of the Gingrich stuff is negative...

If you didn't know Ron Paul so far is in a very strong second in both popular vote and delegate count. Makes this even more bizzare.
