Guinta Can't Answer Direct Question on Mystery Money

by: Dean Barker

Tue Oct 12, 2010 at 21:21:54 PM EDT

I was going to add this to elwood's post on Jon Greenberg's outstanding reporting, but it's so devastating I think it deserves its own space on the front page (emphases mine):
No reporter has asked Guinta if his parents are the source of his money.  We tried but didn't get far.

JG:  Did your parents gift you a great deal of money?

GUINTA:  I'm going to focus on the issues of economy, and jobs, and moving this country forward.

JG:  Did your parents gift you a great deal of money?[pause] I didn't hear an answer.

GUINTA:  I've already addressed the matter that you're trying to talk about.

JG:  And you're not answering the question yes or no.[pause]

Adding: If you can get the audio to work, you owe it to yourself to hear this exchange.  Guinta definitely sounds nervous when confronted with the question on whether the money came from his parents.
