Casino Magnate May Pledge $20 Million To Gingrich Campaign

Politico reported that billionaire casino magnate Sheldon Adelson is considering pledging $20 million to New Gingrich's presidential campaign through a PAC.

Casino magnate Sheldon Adelson has discussed directing $20 million to an outside group backing Newt Gingrich’s presidential campaign, multiple sources told POLITICO – a good sign for allies who have been pushing the former speaker’s longtime billionaire supporters to sign on.

Adelson apparently called Politico after their report was filed to deny having made any such commitment to Gingrich.
