Here we go
Legal Insurrection ^ | 1/18/12 | William Jacobson

Posted on 01/18/2012 6:58:25 PM PST by Lakeshark

From Drudge:

"Marianne Gingrich has said she could end her ex-husband’s career with a single interview.

Earlier this week, she sat before ABCNEWS cameras, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

She spoke to ABCNEWS reporter Brian Ross for two hours, and her explosive revelations are set to rock the trail.

But now a “civil war” has erupted inside of the network, an insider claims, on exactly when the confession will air!

ABCNEWS suits determined it would be “unethical” to run the Marianne Gingrich interview so close to the South Carolina Primary, a curious decision, one insider argued, since the network has aggressively been reporting on other candidates.

A decision was tentatively made to air the interview next Monday, after all votes have been counted.

Well now that this is out there, and we have no idea what the revelations are, isn’t the damage done?
**snip**
Howard Kurtz, who is pretty keyed in on media stuff, tweets:

I’m told Gingrich’s ex-wife says nothing to ABC she hasn’t said before — but simply saying it on camera makes it a big television story

If Kurtz is right and the ex-wife has nothing new to say, I predict a backlash in favor of Newt.

It’s starting to look like we could end up with a match-up between “The One Who we have been waiting for” and Romney. If so, we need to start getting serious about how we’re going to vote: against Obama or not voting (= a vote for Obama). Another four years of Obama is a worst-case scenario IMO.

It’s all about Sarah Palin. Now that she said vote for Newt, the media has a call to arms.

The ex has just made a laughingstock of herself and I feel sorry for all related to her. She needs her head shrunken.

Remember Carter’s bro and his beer? This will play out on SNL too.

The entire LSM doesn't like Republicans.

Obama would have lasted less than half the time that Cain did if he had an (R) behind his name.

The LSM knows that Newt is a danger to them. Now that he is surging again, it’s time to hit below the belt, early and often.

ABC has a stack of smears to levt against Romney too when the time is right. ABC has a agenda, re-elect Obama.

So basically this broad is going to repeat the same nonsense she has been saying for years..and this is supposed to be breaking news..the big bombshell story LOL..how about a bunch of WHO CARES!! Good try media though, now ABC can go back to Romney’s people who paid this woman off and say “We tried Mittens, we tried.”

ABC and all the media will sacrifice their souls to push Romney. They are skunks, snakes, slugs scum bags.

Once they get him they will turn on him. Like sharks in bloody water. Just like McCain story with the Lobbyist!

It could be something like this: "Be careful, Americans. Don't let him do to you what he did to me. Newt always said I was a vindictive bitch who was out to get him and ruin his presidential chances and after calls by Axelrod and Romney, who had read my remarks back in 2010, I've decided that the American people deserve to hear me say it on air. I'm not a vindictive bitch and I would probably vote for Newt if he got the nomination, but anyone with that kind of attitude is just not suited to be president, even if he is the only one who will rip Obama a new a-hole on live TV.

Because of his perverted lifestyle choice, Matt Drudge harbors a grudge against Newt for speaking the truth. It’s blatantly obvious what is going on when you see that Drudge is coordinating with the activist homosexual group GOProud to try and take down Newt for their boy Mitt. This is really the lowest of the low.

Um, she was his wife.

How is this similar to Cain?

Hey, where were you when Cain was there? :)

I wonder if I did a search on Lakeshark + Cain, what I would find.

Good point... I would like to know the date of the “dejected” Newt photo Drudge has posted to support the announcement.

Looking for Newt to rise above this... Perhaps it will be the final trash story.

Yes, Drudge has bEen completely in the tank for Romney for some time now.. His excitement in reporting this smear attack on Newt was just too obvious.
