Newt Gingrich Going to Hawaii — for Fund-raising, Obviously

Newt Gingrich always promises that he is going to run an unconventional campaign. Now, he’s turning convention on its head by traveling thousands of miles out of his way for a fund-raising stop in Hawaii, of all places. Some cynical reporters are already implying that Gingrich is only spending a few days in this beautiful, tropical paradise because the “jaunt nearly coincides with the Gingriches’ eleventh wedding anniversary, which is tomorrow.” But asked why Gingrich is traveling to Hawaii, Gingrich’s spokesman responded, “Fundraising“, so, it’s that.
