Newt Gingrich has taken a beating lately, what with a mass staff exodus and further revelations about his million-dollar credit line at Tiffany’s. So how does the 2012 Republican presidential candidate and former college teacher prove he’s still in the game? By releasing a straight-to-class video, a freshman-level introductory lesson on the Federal Reserve.

Released on Wednesday, the nearly three-minute video, “Who Got The Money,” is not nearly as hip as its title suggest. It does, however, feature background muzak, which makes it slightly less sleep-inducing than Gingrich’s announcement video.
