Attacking those who raise this issue will not make it go away. Newt has so much baggage even Southwest Airlines would hit him with bag fees. The question is, can he run against Obama while still carrying that load of baggage? His supporters have to make the case, and the first step towards that is acknowledging the issue is valid.

Right now I am willing to consider any of the candidates other than Romney, Huntsman and Paul. The news cycle has now latched onto Newt like a ravenous man attacking a plate of corn on the cob, and Newt is the latest cob to be picked up and chewed upon. We'll see how he withstands his turn.

Those who rasie this issue with a self-righteous echo will actually help Newt overcome the stigma, because so many Americans are very well acquainted with the darker side of divorce and not a few well acquainted with foregiveness.

That there is funny!

Truth be told, Newt has seen zero scrutiny from the press yet.

The only press about it is us talking about the ****storm that is coming his way.

Personally I couldn't give a hoot about his personal life, it is his political record he is going to have to explain

Baggage? Did he smoke crack and sleep with a man?
Is he using a false SS# and Birth Certificate?
Is he hiding his school records?
Did he vote present more than yea or nay when he was in the legislature?
Is he coddling muslim terrorists and demonizing gun owning, god-fearing americans?
Is squashing energy production in the form of pipelines and offshore wells?
NO ONE in the field has ANY baggage compared to the Zero, therefore, baggage will be immaterial in this election. We are driving toward the edge of a precipice. Who can turn the bus around?
