I am not defending serial adultery. I also believe in the power of conversion and that Christ can change people. From what I see now, Newt has changed. Only time will tell.

However, that does not excuse this woman’s behavior. She is holding a grudge that will do her more harm than Newt and being used by the MSM and possibly Romney. My mother is twice divorced - both times cheated on by her husbands (my father and stepfather). Both divorces were painful, however she eventually was able to forgive them (as a Christian should) even if she was not able to trust them again. Letting go of the pain and hurt did her (and in the long run me) more good than holding on to it.

FWIW, my mother didn’t catch my father in bed with another woman, she caught him in bed with another MAN - that REALLY smarts.

To err is human - but it feels divine! I am glad your mother was able to forgive. I am not sure about Newt’s “repentance” or his current wife’s either - she was, after all, the “other woman”. Interesting that she is not being skewered.
