Amid news that Newt Gingrich’s ex-wife Marianne’s interview with ABC will air tonight, a political veteran who has had past ties to Gingrich, reminds me that the former Mrs. Gingrich has long opposed his running for president.
“I think it matters that she’s been saying this shit for years — and has been doing things to tweak him for years,” said this source.
This is actually true.
As the New York Post reminds us today:
In 1995, when Vanity Fair magazine asked Marianne what would happen if Newt ran for president, she boasted she could derail the bid with a single TV interview.
“He can’t do it without me,” she said.
“I told him if I’m not in agreement, fine, it’s easy.
“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.”
“There’s always been a real — almost like a jealousy issue with her,” my source adds. “She likes attention. And she’s very bitter. And this is behavior of someone who likes attention and is very bitter.”
All of this will NOT turn out well for “Marrianne”.
Did anyone mention the lack of info about Obama? Or Reggie Love? Or Larry Sinclair? Or the North Chicago Bath House where allegedly Bill Frist ...
I’m pretty sure my ex-wife would say about the same thing. So what?
It’s pathetic. In light of having a President Obama and our country being destroyed forever with another four years of him. We won’t survive it. Marriane, shaddup already.
Obama in 1995, “*huffs* *puffs* I think i am done for now Larry”...
Very telling.....’bout his ex witch that is...glad he stuck it to her.
She was cheating with him when he was married to his first wife. Guess it ain’t fun when them chickens come home to roost.
With that said, democrats stick with their man no matter what. Conservatives stick with their principles. I wouldn’t be surprised if this doesn’t end it for Newt.
Anyone wonder WHY after seeing this BITCH why Newt strayed and went to the arms of another, Marianne, YOU, share SOME responsibity for your marriage dying as well!

When Rush was talking about the “won”s past history he let the term “boy friend” slip and he laughed a bit. LOL
Wake me up when Newt drowns Marianne in an Oldsmobile.
Exes say a lot of things...hopefully people will discount this.
Will the press look at her dirty laundry? They were VERY interested in Linda Tripp and Monica. And Paula - and more than willing to trash those women. What's their excuse for this double standard? The press always has an excuse for why dems are treated one way - and we're treated another way. Funny how they're so willing to believe their own excuses.
Newt's starting to look more sympathetic.
She comes across as one bitter narcissistic type. The "press" is so ready to exploit her... to help spread her bitterness. Why?
Can we reciprocate? There are newsmen who have been unfaithful.
Maybe some of US don't want to see - or READ the news - when it's written by people who were unfaithful to their marriage partners. Let's parade them out and make our call. Turn about's fair play, right?
Anyone know some bitter ex-wives of newsmen? Let's have some fun with them... Are you ready ABC? CBS? Are all your editors and reporters 'pure'?
The mystery women with unwitnessed charges of sexual harassment will appear in 3, 2, 1...

Nothing like a woman scorned.
We know nothing about what his life was like with her.
She could have been a big jealous b****, and hard to live with.
Let’s get back on the real issues.
Double standards, media control, and voter fraud is winning the game.
Considering the country is getting screwed, might as well get someone who has first hand experience in that.
I heard Rush say today that he knew Marianne from way back when and she was not at all comfortable in the spotlight and Newt thought that could hurt him at that time.
