If this is true -and I have no reason to believe it isn’t- it changes my perception about Gingrich considerably. He’s still got a lot of baggage though.

It doesn't change one thing about my opinion of him. He was my congressman for years. At the height of the Lewinsky affair, Clinton lying under oath, etc. My Congressman and Our Speaker said in a videotaped meeting (I saw it) said effectively that he would hold Mr. Clinton's feet to the fire for political policy, national security negligence, moral and ethical performance, etc....IOW the whole ball of wax that was Slick Willie.

This NEVER came to pass. It never came to pass because ole pudgy, Newt, was screwing his aide, now 'wife', Callista, whose name he now drops whenever he gets the chance. He got caught and resigned. He knew when he promised due diligence to uphold conservative values he couldn't deliver and to make it worse, he didn't even fit the mold himself.

He is a seriously flawed person and it will be a cold day in Hell when I vote for him in a primary OR general election. I don't care what his daughter says.

This correct information has been out for years.

The brain-dead and non readers found in abundance here on FR have skipped over the truth for years.

He’s still got a lot of baggage though.

His "baggage" is his record as Speaker and his much more recent involvement with leftists regarding "global warming" and education. Didn't he do some sort of tour regarding education policy with Bill Ayers and Rev. Farrakhan? How can anyone even be in the same room with those evil people?

I agree. I had been hearing an entirely different version, and yes, it made me change my opinion. While he is an excellent debater and well informed, he is not my choice for POTUS. Among others, I am concerned about his stand on illegal aliens. I would vote for him if it was him or Obama.

Contract With America. The caving on that was the beginnning of the end for my support of anything GOP. Newt & Co fooled me once, but no more.

He lied about that, and allowed his personal reputation suffer to through how many marriages? I call SELF-SERVING BS on the part of the hyphenated Cushman-Gingrich offspring.

forget it, Newtie - he’s more done than my Mother’s Sunday Roast (overcooked, overexposed, overhyped and if your fork can get through it, it’ll make you sick if you can take a bite without losing a tooth)

I’ll take my chances with the Tea Party and leave the typical hypocrite wannabe to his fate - lobbyist and commentator on the public & private tit.

IOW - FU Newt.

PS...can’t wait til you come to IA next week. OUR TEA PARTY DOESN’T SWALLOW.
