Former House speaker Newt Gingrich had a second line of credit at the high-end jewelry store Tiffany’s for as much as $1 million dollars, his presidential campaign acknowledged Tuesday.
Joe DeSantis, a spokesman for Gingrich, said that the candidate’s personal financial disclosure filing, which is due within 30 days of his formal entrance into the presidential race, will “show that the Gingriches had a $500,000 to $1 million line of credit at Tiffany’s, that it has a zero balance, and it has been closed.”
DeSantis added that all debts to Tiffany’s had been paid in full. He offered no details about when the second line of credit was taken out, what it was used for or when it was closed.

Maybe Newt has another girlfriend waiting in the wings?
Preternatural human combustion. Poof.
I’m so glad he’s just another regular joe like me.
What?
Oh.
Well fuck…..
Austerity for thee, America, but Tiffany diamonds for my wife.
Ok, at this point, can we all just admit that the only reason anyone is talking about this is for the rubbernecking (nothing against you, rubbernecker, just odd coincidence)? I mean, honestly, he’s toast. Everyone knows it. At this point, the coverage is no different than watching Charlie Sheen’s meltdown. Hey, maybe Newt could revive his campaign by naming Charlie as his running mate. Team Tiger Blood!
