Newt wrote a book called “Rediscovering God in America,” based on religion and our founding fathers. I haven’t read it but do intend to do so and he has produced some religious films via his production company.
Newt needs money, fair coverage and a few more debates with Romney. Will he get it? I doubt Romney will debate him again and I doubt Fox will be fair. WE have to be the ones to get the word out.

Chronology is fine. Newt wanted to get a quick divorce from Marianne in 1994, but she would not give him a divorce, seeing that he was on a track to becoming a Speaker, 3rd most important position in the government and realizing the income potential of being his "wife".

It wasn't a good time for Newt to have a "scandalous" long drawn-out divorce proceedings (which he should have finalized long before, but the "bad, mean Newt" was financially supporting her all through these years, regardless of separation, including having much of his income from books and lectures being in the bank accounts in her name). No good deed goes unpunished.

He found her a cushy job in D.C., they "reconciled" and she was basically a "political function wife" for events and appearances, until that time when he could get divorced from Marianne ("ex-wife-to-be") and get married to Callista ("wife-in-waiting"). During that period (c. 1995) she actually threatened him of "destroying his career with one interview" (great "wife" eh?)

Not the ideal situation, of course, but in the period of 1994-1998 he didn't have time for divorce, the situation that his long-estranged "wife" Marianne decided to exploit... When Newt said few years ago (after meeting with James Dobson) that he "made mistakes in his personal life because of his love for the country," he wasn't kidding. It cost him during the divorce, too, Marianne squeezed just about everything she could from that "marriage".

The "opportunity" to become finally free of gold-digging Marianne presented itself after 1998 elections, when everybody on the right and the left decided to blame him and his push for Clinton's impeachment for the loss of some House seats. He resigned from the House in 1999, filed and finalized the divorce from Marianne, moved to VA and married Callista.

Do click on the links I have in my original post, as well as well as the link to the blogger's article in my first post - they provide a lot clearer and more complete picture and details of the "political accommodation" of Marianne during that time period (no, it wasn't as she claimed, an "open marriage").

Additional links re the same matter, with much more details:

"""The sheep are lining up behind him as he leads us to the slaughter""""

Those sheeple are here tonight posting as if they WERE Santorum supporters, I seriously doubt that now, I suggest they were MITT ROMNEY BACKERS FROM THE BEGINNING.

To suggest anything else just does not make any sense, because from the start on FR, it was always ANYBODY BUT ROMNEY. Santorum dropped out and they turn to ROMNEY? LIARS all, and then say so many disparaging things about NEWT, what gall, ye hypocrites.

Something is just wrong with that picture, the Romney sheep have finally disclosed themselves as PURPLE WOLVES. They did their job well, but NEWT WILL NOT GO AWAY, rofl.

Hey to you Romney loving hypocrites, if NEWT is not going to win the nomination, why are you so concerned enough to keep posting TRASH about NEWT? Newt is still a threat, I see. Romney does not have this sewed up.

Marianne, after leaving Newt in 1987 and filing for divorce (but not proceeded with it), went back to Newt in 1994, after more than six years of separation, because he had become the Speaker of the House and she liked being in the spotlights. Newt, I don’t know why, accepted her back, but the marriage link was already irremediably broken ... Finally he filed for divorce in 1998, the divorce was finalized in 1999, and in 2000 he married Callista.

You’re probably right. Most of the Santorum’s supporters (except a few) are shilling now for Mitt - the “lesser” of two evils.

There is no lesser evil. It’s either evil or not. Such chutzpah. Reminds me of the criminal who murdered both his parents and asked for the jury leniency, because he’s an ... orphan.

The post #122 explains why - Marianne wouldn't give him a quick divorce and exploited his time demands (the Contract With America, welfare reform and balancing the budgets while having to fight 84 bogus ethics charges filed by the Democrats and not contested by the Republicans on the ethics committee, and later, the impeachment of William Jefferson Clinton) by threatening a "scandal."

It was a way for him, at least temporarily, to get on with all the things he needed to do as the Speaker with the new majority in the House. It was not the best course of action for him, personally, but it was the best he could do for the country.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Thank you for the good post and all the good links.

This race is getting closer to a bad end. A lot of us, like me, didn’t get our first OR second choice. There are three men still standing. Romney. Paul. Gingrich. And all the Gingrich stabbers continue to stab him. So you stabbers are pulling for either Paul or Romney.

Or Obama. Which? Tell us.

Breaking News!

Rick Santorum donor Friess was Mitt Romney’s mole!
He dropped Rick and returned to Romney’s headquarters, that’s why Santorum dropped out, from lack of financial support and fear to lose his home state PA...

We could go through this thread, post by post and name each and every one of those traitorous pretened to be Santorum supporters, ALWAYS was Mitt Romney supporters by screen name.

Every one of them were always Romney supporters. To say otherwise would be a lie.

We Newt supporters never hated Santorum, and if Newt had dropped out we would all put our support to Santorum, not that we would like it, but we had to.

But not them, loyalty to conservatism and ABR, was not/is not one of their virtues. For them not to support NEWT at this point, proves my point. LIARS all and members of the well oiled and greasy Mitt Romney campaign, exposed.

I have read all of their comments, and literacy is not a virtue either it seems. NEWT IS STILL IN THE RACE, and still the THRONE IN MITTENS SIDE.

There are many of Romneys MOLES posting tonight, as well.

His campaign is full of greasy low life, who think nothing of destroying anyone that gets in their way. His campaign I suggest was responsible for the Herman Cain fiasco, and many many other things that have gone on in this election, put Pontiue Pilot Romneys hands are clean. Twern't ME he says.

ALAS, their biggest threat NEWT GINGRICH IS STILL IN THIS RACE.

But, one can say, Fox News and Brit Hume don't even mention Newt anymore, so he is not a candidate any longer? But, why then are so many Romney supporters on FR tonight trashing NEWT, who isn't in the race? Oh, they are such a confused bunch, aren't they?.

YOU. ARE. ABSOLUTELY. RIGHT.

An acquaintance of mine in the campaign, said that the Romney campaign won't address Newt because that would be treating him as a genuine, still viable, contender. Instead, they are directing Mitt's supporters to attack Newt over the net, and anywhere they can. And he told me this today. Looks like THE Mittbots got the message. Mitt thought he was finished with Newt - what's that saying - take a shot at the king - you better be sure it does the job.

Like most things, Mitt screwed it up bigtime...

NEWT'S BACK IN TOWN, BRINGING THE PAIN...

Newt terminator
                                                                 NEWT GINGRICH.

HE'LL MAKE JOHN BOEHNER CRY LIKE A BABY GIRL.

They have been EXPOSED tonight, and never let them have another word in pretending otherwise. They were never Santorum supporters. NEVER.

Your friend was right, and that is why the media, especially FOX will not address NEWT any longer as a candidate. BUT HE'S STILL THERE.

I'm Still with NEWT. You keep posting that on every thread that is geared to Mitt. We won't let him (Mitt) take this nomination by DEFAULT, will we?

I will stay STRONG, we will not BE defeated by DEFAULT to a loser like MITT.

I saw that Mittens whining thread, and posted to that as well.

It is no longer necessary to mention all the things that NEWT has accomplised, imo. It will do no good to the Mittbots who have exposed themselves. Why bother?

Keep our conversation Upbeat,Positive and expose them for who they are and speak only to the like minds in agreement for NEWT, ALL OTHERS IGNORE. They are not here, we can pretend we are Britt Hume who is a past master at ignoring a presidential candidate.

They are really not NEWT haters either, they are just ROMNEY LOVERS and always have been, how much does that job pay, SUB SAMBICH?

I will check out the new NEWT website, thanks.

NEWT GINGRICH IS STILL IN THIS RACE. deal with it Mitten.

As per norm, you are right. The campaign is shifting, and so are the volunteers - collecting stuff and putting together an approach - wasting no more time debating sancto's supporters, or Mitt lovers, Just pushing Gingrich and his qualifications, experience, strengths to the forefront of every discussion...

they are hoping to have this in full swing by midweek... a lot of it is going to include encouragement, motivation, alot of people are very downhearted...

Delaware and NC are pretty much ground zero... DE only has 3 counties, 2 of them rural. He is working very hard there, and needs all the help he can get...

If you are the kind of person who can make phone calls those are going to be very important...

If you go to www.newt.org - they are upgrading the phone banks right now because they want to be able to handle a really big push to more than 1 state simultaneously...

Newt delaware choice

Sorry, but it’s the whiners who let us down.

The only conservative left standing is the only conservative ANYWHERE who ate democrats for breakfast.

The rest discuss it.

It’s Newt, or it’s Obama around here. (With or without the Romney RINO regime, it’s Newt or Obama.)

Your pathetic lack of reason is why RINOS work us over with regularity, putting up now a socialist you’re going to wave your tiny little flag for.

Your flag color, however, is yellow first and white on the edges, for surrender.
