"Most guys ex-wife could end their careers..."

And that's the grand mis-calculation.

That, and the fact that many women are married to men who were once married to "that b!tch".

"If Marianne doesn't come across as a complete ANGEL, this will add votes to Newt."

I'm going to bet that she never re-married. If true, this was Newt's one mistake in his grand calculations. Ex wives are much happier after they get re-married. Even if they divorce their next husband, all of their venom will be focused on that ex husband and taken off you.
