Newt didn't even know that he owned Freddy and Fannie investments in his mutual fund holdings.

Newt was thrown off for the rest of the night by that; he must be really stupid bringing that up about Rmoney owning those investments in his blind trust, thinking that he was on safe ground.

It shows that Newt either didn't know, or he didn't do his prep, or that he didn't think Rmoney does opposition research.
