Forbes has confirmed that billionaire Sheldon Adelson, along with his wife Miriam, has donated $10 million to the leading Super PAC supporting presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romneyand thats just the tip of the iceberg. A well-placed source in the Adelson camp with direct knowledge of the casino billionaires thinking says that further donations will be limitless.
Adelson, who has built Las Vegas Sands into an global casino empire, will do whatever it takes to defeat Obama, this source says. And given that Adelson is worth $24.9 billionand told Forbes in a recent rare interview about his political giving that he had been willing to donate as much as $100 million to his initial presidential preference, Newt Gingrichthat limitless description telegraphs potential nine-digit support of Romney.
