TPM:
We reported earlier this month that Newt Gingrich's 527 group had accidentally told porn exec Allison Vivas that she'd been awarded an "Entrepreneur of the Year" award and invited her to an "intimate event" with Gingrich. The group soon backtracked and said the whole thing was a mistake.
Well, they may have made a similar mistake again. The Dallas Morning News reports that the owner of a topless club in Texas was given the same award -- and then stripped of it.
Dawn Rizos, owner of The Lodge, which the Morning News calls "one of the best-known gentlemen's clubs in Dallas," was named an "Entrepreneur of the Year" by Gingrich's conservative group. And then Gingrich rescinded the invitation to a private D.C. dinner -- along with Rizos' $5,000 donation to Gingrich's group, American Solutions for Winning the Future.
The group's spokesman, Dan Kotman, was not immediately available for comment.
