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.

The easiest way to mine a harbor is one press release saying so

I think Gingrich was possible but shaky - with this, I think he's bye-bye.

Incredible: three top conservative contenders down in flames (the first one voluntarily but a wounded warrior). As they say, "You can't make this stuff up."

A word about the GOP.

I wonder how long the GOP has been a soft Liberal party. I believe Reagan stole the party back from the Liberals ("moderates") in 1980. Eisenhower allowed taxes and government to grow crazily in the 50's. How far back do you have to go? I think sometime in the late 1800's/early 1900's, America found itself without a political party that would put America and its Christian, traditional values first. I think ever since then the GOP has put its own interests and political perpetuation ahead of what's best for America.

The country has withstood an amazingly long period of time without sustained organizational and institutional support. May God Himself continue to bless and uphold America against her enemies, within and without, until He returns for His own.

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

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

Agree and the left and their Cainism are not going to work this time!

I hope this won’t have much of an effect..I for one have become numb to confessions/allegations of ex-girlfriends,purported victims, wives, ex-wives etc etc of Republican candidates..enough already.

I hope the people of S.C. are smart enough to vote for him anyway, just to send the message that America doesn’t want Mittens.

Just a lame attempt to bury the REAL story of the day, the 200 page report on Romney.

http://cdn2.dailycaller.com/2012/01/McCain-2008-Oppo-File-on-Romney.pdf

plus the story about how Romney is hiding millions in off shore accounts to avoid US taxes.

http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/romney-parks-millions-offshore-tax-haven/story?id=15378566#.TxdCB_nF98E

And the other story revealed today which told how Romney made tons of money from the disposal of aborted babies that it considered “waste”

It will be nothing new. They are hoping to scare off enough Fundies. They know that Newt can't win SC if the Heir of Kolob is to prevail.

It is a sin to hurt someone deliberately.

I just cannot cheer this kind of behavior. This will backfire. This woman posts on Daily Kos with her hatred of Newt.

Newt was involved with Herman Cain’s wife?

This is all ancient history being dug up, dusted off, and presented as fresh dirt and; furthermore, I’m sure there’s a big fat payoff in it for her as well.

I’m surprised it’s not coming from NRO. They have the same agenda and conservative credentials in my book.

Go back and watch the last ABC Republican debate. ABC does not like Republicans. It was one of the worst debates held.

We should be pretty ticked off at Drudge over this. He is helping ABC hype this to inflict maximum damage. There is no there there. This is nothing new. This is the most disgusting politics there is. ABC is trying to influence the election not report on it and Americans should be furious!

They never been able to find a bad thing to say about Obama!

sounds like a re-hash of a 1995 story about her saying she’d keep Newt from getting on presidential ballot.
