The One Simple Reason Newt Gingrich Will Not Win The General Election: Women
Posted by RealQuiet (Diary) December 7th
Newt Gingrich has conducted a brilliant campaign strategy since he stumbled back in late spring regarding Paul Ryan’s Path to Prosperity Plan. He has been masterful in debates and shown an eagerness to take on and fight the media elite. He has owned up to his personal and political mistakes and stated candidly what his positions are, though many may disagree with them but still live with them.
He hasn’t shown the brash ego and self-centeredness that reared its ugly head so many times when he was the Speaker of the House. He certainly seems to be a changed man.
BUT…..
Though Gingrich has engaged in his own political cronyism and playing both sides of the fence on political issues like Mitt Romney has in the past (which the Republican voter seems to be willing to overlook), there is one thing that will stop him from winning the general election:
A considerable majority of American women will not vote for him because of his past marital actions of betrayal
Most American women whether they be Democrat, independent, or Republican will not vote for a man who cheated on his previous wife(s). Among women, men like this cannot and will not be trusted. People like to point out that Ronald Reagan had two wives. The key thing is Ronald Reagan never cheated on Jane Wyman, his first wife. She left him because there was nothing left in common between them as she claimed. That is a very big difference.

These so called experts know nothing about women.
This woman is supporting Gingrich.
How interesting. I find just the opposite. Women can see right through the fake words of his ex. She was trying to twist his words. She was a clingy, jealous, overbearing woman who was jealous of her husband’s ambitions. When he said the Colista
Reality is a hard thing. A couple basic points. The GOP will win the South, so all this about women in SCarolina and points South is not the issue.
Moderate women don’t like Newt both due to infidelity and because they view him as a more strict conservative.
I will vote against Obama but reality is reality. I think Newt can win but risk is everywhere in life.
The Establishment is terrified. He will win the election in an historic landslide.
Pray for America
I don’t want a bj from a outside linebacker, powderpuff or not.
Yup, if the dems actually though Newt would go down to ignominious defeat they would be pushing hard to give him the nomination.
But it’s Mitt they are helping, how interesting.
(Ui) U Idiot.
Newtbot?
You're lucky it's very late on a slow Friday night. Otherwise, you would be sooooo dead right now....
Whoa... I’ve never seen that photo before.
How many heterosexual males do you know who sit that close to another man, when the rest of the sofa is available???
Men don’t even sit next to each other in a movie theater. They always leave an empty seat between them. (Unless you’re in Italy, of course.)
Young love, true love.
Hard to believe the lil’ paki fella lost out to the beast.
They are perfectly willing to experience four more years of Obama simply for the privilege of seeing Noot debate him.
The One Simple Reason Newt Gingrich Will Not Win The General Election???
Ok, I got it... it is because ZERO will NOT Debate Newt on TV Ever, he and the dems will find away to avoid it at all cost and therefore mute the point.
Zero cannot debate and win against the Newtonator therefore he will find some excuse (with the LSM help) to not hold any debates. The LSM will not have there king look like the fool that he is, it just wont happen.
FUBO, FULSM
Go Newt!!!
Actually, Reagan won because in the debates he immediately came off as a plausible and responsible replacement for Carter. It isn’t all combativeness and cleverness. Santorum is quite stable but sorry he is boring and looks like a child. Newt is clever and inspiring but maybe too much of a wise guy. I have to give Romney the slight edge on this debate thing.
As for me I would vote for Bob Dole against Obama if needed, if he’s still alive.
Yep... you know the audience as well as I do, I see. ;-)
Oh, I don’t know.
Women love smart, powerful men—men in control and command. And Newt, especially in these last debates, comes across as a man in control, who wields a lot of power.
