Rachel Maddow: Newt Gingrich Running Scams Akin To A Nigerian Prince E-MailLast night Rachel Maddow took some time to explain how Newt Gingrich makes a living. For instance.....there was a letter he spammed sent out, to a bunch of Doctors inviting them to a ceremony where they would receive his '2010 Champions of Medicine' award which was a nice little certificate. Or his entrepreneur of the year award, which included an engraved gavel.All you had to do to claim your award, was pay a paltry $5,000 to attend a banquet where you got a chance to rub shoulders with Newt.Newt makes his living by scamming people, or selling access to himself to anyone willing to pay.VIDEO
