We all know that JFK was a ladies' man but it's never boring to remind ourselves quite how many ladies the man had, continuously - he told Harold Macmillan he got a headache if he didn't go to bed with someone once every three days - and from a young age.

After he married, the compulsion for quick, random sex continued unabated. A woman friend said he was as "compulsive as Mussolini. Up against the wall, Signora, if you have five minutes, that sort of thing." Another woman he dated just before he became president was told, "I wish we had time for some foreplay."

Excellent post. I wonder, do you think Gingrich is aware that this is what he is doing? I have always wondered why it is no one watched Palin and learned from her that you can take everything the establishment and the left has — and still come out the other end in tact. He, ofcourse, takes it a step further than Palin and has twice her intellect though none of the packaging she is blessed with.
