For one thing, Gingrich pioneered a denial of adultery that some observers would later christen “the Newt Defense”: Oral sex doesn’t count. In a revealing psychological portrait of the “inner” Gingrich that appeared in Vanity Fair (September 1995), Gail Sheehy uncovered a woman, Anne Manning, who had an affair in Washington in 1977 with a married Gingrich.
“We had oral sex,” Manning revealed. “He prefers that modus operandi because then he can say, ‘I never slept with her.’” She added that Gingrich threatened her: “If you ever tell anybody about this, I’ll say you’re lying.”

You know what? He might have.
Is he flawed? Yes.
Will the MSM target him? Yes.
Will we eat Newt and throw him under the bus like we did Cain? I hope not.
Would you vote for Newt over Romney? Yep. Would you vote for Newt over Obama or say, “Newt is flawed, so I can’t vote for him?” I hope you don’t or our country is gone.
I’m sick of our side eating our own and holding our candidates to a standard that we ourselves can’t even meet. How to you think our candidates got to where they are? Do you think it was a pristine journey????????????
ANY OF OUR CANDIDATES are superior to Obama and would save the country. Any, including the hated Romney.
Salon? You got any corresponding quotes from Mother Jones or Rolling Stone?
