........But his greatest presidential stumbling block may be right under his nose. At home, Newt's second wife, Marianne Ginther Gingrich, tells me she doesn't see herself in the First Lady's job. "Watching Hillary has just been a horrible experience," commiserates Marianne. "Hillary sticking her neck out is not working."
What happens if Newt runs?, I ask.
"He can't do it without me," she replies. "I told him if I'm not in agreement, fine, it's easy" --she giggles at her naughtiness. "I just go on the air the next day, and I undermine everything...I don't want him to be president and I don't think he should be."
Why not?
"Right now, the presidency is not a single person. It's not so much what he'd be doing. It's what I'd be doing.".........

Unless this involves abuse of children or animals, I’m sticking with Newt. Coming from a family thick with divorce, I know first hand how nasty divorce can be, how nasty ex-spouses can be, and most of all — I KNOW how nasty these political operatives are lately.
It’s a he said/she said thing with HER motives and intentions made clear from over 15 years ago!!
I’m not voting for a husband ...and I’m voting based on Newt’s POLITICAL record — not his matrimonial record.
I hope this backfires HUGELY on Ms. Ex-Gingrich and ABC as well.
It is being broadcasted a few days before the election. That is dirty and spin it anyway you want..it has nothing to do with the urgent issues facing this nation and Newts ability to turn this country around.
So? it was discussed on FR. FR has more in depth exchanges than the MSM and freepers do more homework on every issue than the MSM.
It is clear that you detest Newt...but most of us KNOW a dirty trick when we see it...and this ranks way UP there! I do hope the moderators at tomorrows debate in SC ask Newt about this...he will straighten everyone out and maybe (to your disdain) get a standing O! GOOOOOOOOOOO NEWT!!!!
Don’t forget she cheated too.
Psssst,,, dude. DJ is well-known and respected here at FR. Of course, there’s never an expectation to agree with everything she says, but she has a track record that you don’t.
But she isn’t running for president.
Santorum cannot withstand an onslaught from Obama and his machine. He is not scrappy enough.
Quite honestly granny Marianne Gingrich has been giving bitter interviews for years. There will be no new details.
From Newt’s own words in a Politco interview today ...
“I fully expect the Romney campaign to be unendingly dirty and dishonest,” Gingrich said. “They thought they could buy this. They’re discovering they can’t buy this.”
He concluded his 40-minute town hall by encouraging attendees to help him combat attacks.
“I think they have internal polls showing them losing,” he said. “I think they will do anything at any level.”
Step back..take a deep breath and think about this...why is ABC doing the interview? could it be they are genuinely concerned Newt could win the gop nod and face their man, Obama? IF the moderators ask Newt about this tomorrow night..he will have his chance to make ABC, Marianne and those behind the attacks look like the sleeze buckets they are and he may even get another standing O!
Talent is a POS and so is Romney and his staffers for running such a dirty campaign. I am praying the voters in SC are too smart to fall for the scorched earth hits and know a true conservative leader when they see one and beyond any shadow of a doubt..that leader is NEWT.
Did you hear or read something in regards to Romney not wanting to do anymore debates? his staffers said, “there have been enough debates,” I don’t think Mitt plans to go to any in Fla! I will have to see if I can find the article on that...GOOOOOOOOOOO NEWT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GIVE THE EMPTY SUITS THE BOOT (in the arse)
He had to know this was coming. I find it sad. This woman is angry and ill and being used.
Obama’s old flame is discreet.

Or dead.
How can a man with so many amazing accomplishments have so little history? We don’t even know what his true social security number is and the one most commonly used belongs to someone else in a state where he never lived. We don’t know if he got financial aid to college as a foreign citizen and we can hardly find a single person that even remembers him in college.
We elected the Manchurian Candidate and his corporate puppet-masters (Soros, GE, and Co) have raked in billions and there is still not a bit of curiousity on the part of the MSM? Where are the stories of his success as a community agitator? Where are the stories about his friend Tony Rezko, the slumlord.
They will drag out college pranks on GOP candidates but won’t even discern if the President actually attended school where he supposedly matriculated.
Welcome to the twilight zone.
That's my guess, too. His attitude toward you was the first clue.
Yup.
There are so many, how do we keep track!!!!!!!
But her word is being used to bring down a potential president.
Can just imagine Fox News, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, Drudge, etc on friday and saturday. The deck is stacked. I do hope that Newt is still given a chance to do a lot of damage control and maybe even mention this during the debate despite the fact it will be on afterwards. His staff must be frantic...do pray hard the folks in S.C see through this dirty ploy.
