WEST DES MOINES, IOWA In our interview, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich discussed what kind of First Lady his wife Calista might be.
Gingrich is quoted in the new e-book THE RIGHT FIGHTS BACK, by Mike Allen and Evan Thomas, saying she would be in the Nancy Reagan mold. So thats where we started.
What did he mean by that? I asked.
First of all she is a very strong personality, which Nancy Reagan was, Gingrich said. She actually describes herself as being a cross between Nancy Reagan and Laura Bush with just a slight bit of Jackie Kennedy tossed in and I think there is, somewhere swirling in there, the model Calista would like to live up to.

She kinda creeps me out. But there’s been worse—much worse.
>> Unseemly, I say.
I have to agree... and I’m actually leaning towards Newt.
dont mean nothing by it but she gives me the creeps..Kinda like the lizard alien creatures
Just spotted this post, and all I can say is...
You have got to be kidding me!
This is hard to take, and while I really appreciate his fast mind in debate, this is a real turn-off.
He forgot high maintenance.
How do we know she will not like to travel or spend like the 1st lady?
On second thought... Is this the beginning of the destruction of Newt?
Inquiring minds, and all that.
They all need to just go the hell away.
Really? To whom might you be referring?
You’re right. Unlike Moochelle, her ass isn’t two ax handles wide!
If pro-amnesty Newt thinks the nomination is his he should stop and consider where the GOP candidates were at this time 4-years ago.
He does seem rather smitten with this Mrs.
This could really get insufferable.
Then I wonder again how Callista reacted when she heard his second wife (the one Newt cheated on with Callista) said Newt explained his affair with Callista by saying, "You're a jaguar and I need a Chevrolet."
Don't ask me what it means, but it does NOT sound good.
I don’t give a shit, Newt.
I’m having a hard time financially.
Just make sure she’s not Moochelle; the American peoples’ patience is at an end with paying parasites’ and their partners’ bills and we really don’t give a shit about your choice in wives.
Save the country if you get elected, ok? Or we’ll throw your ass out.
She is pretty creepy looking to me too....but I will take her over MO anyway of the week.
Well, she seems to have good taste in clothes :) but I don’t care for her eyes, or perhaps it’s her makeup. She looks hard.
I think there’s something weird about people in this situation having a $500,000 tab at Tiffany’s. I’m not against spending money, Lord knows, but what a strangely ostentatious thing to do under all the circumstances.
Obama’s beard...
How many “ly” modifiers did Captain Adverb use?
And with a lot of this guy 'tossed in'.
Newt has almost zero chance of beating zer0.
IMO, Cain was the only candidate who had a chance, and he has been very effectively neutralized.
Whether he was neutralized by paid and lying agents, or whether he really had those ugly skeletons in his closet will remain to be seen.
If he is ever exonerated, it will be too late.
For him and for us.
LOL!
ol NAFTA Newt sure has a good sense of humor.
because surely he was joking?
What a charming first lady she's quite certain she'll make. Certitude and crazy eyes are an interesting combination, though.
Best that one let’s others decide your mates virtues. Come ON; Newt! Enough.
>> She looks hard.
Yep, like she came from another, rockier, planet. :-)

Casey Anthony could beat Obama.
I wonder just how much money has been wasted on all of Michelle Obama’s upkeep, dresses, make-up, hair, jets, trips, etc. compared to previous first ladies? Also wonder how much more vacations and golf games Obama has made in comparison to other Presidents! Nancy Reagan liked to spend but I don’t know how much of her spending was funded by the tax payers. It appears that the 15,000 dollar fees for hair/makeup per pop for Michelle is funded by the tax payers.
Yeah. She has boobs a boob paid for.
They both came across as rather grasping and just a tad self-absorbed.
>> Newt has almost zero chance of beating zer0... Cain was the only candidate who had a chance
Since we’re just talking smack here without any evidence whatsoever, I’ll go ahead and reverse that... Newt has a strong chance of whacking Hussein. Cain has no chance of getting it done.
Just say NO to un- elected co-presidents.
> Casey Anthony could beat Obama.
I hope you’re right, but Gingrich is toxic to the Mushy Middle, so he has little chance of winning the requisite plurality of the “independent” vote.
And forget about the Black vote. They will blame Cain’s lynching on the Tea Party. They will say that we didn’t nominate him, because he was dating White women.
Count on it.
Gingrich probably has friends among the Illegal Alien community. If they vote (illegally) in sufficiently large enough numbers, it might help him, but I don’t think it will be enough.
agreed!
Smacks of “nouveau” to me. Real women don’t need jewels, or demand them either. Ditto, cruises to Greece.
Maybe Newt is lacking in -ahem- other virtues?

At least the dude on the left wasn't a gold-digging tramp.
I gave my reasons that Gingrich will lose in this post.

What’s your analysis of why Gingrich will win?
He waded through hell and swam high waters to acquire them.
Newt, once again, passed up a perfect opportunity to keep his mouth shut.
You guys are sure hard to please.
OMG I just read your link and it explains a lot — like why Gingrich was so silent during the whole impeachment effort. I figured that something like this was going, but this confirms it.
Do you have that picture from Mars Attacks?
