->>A greater number are turned off by Newt because of his serial adultery, even though that is a lesser issue with me.

Well, that's a head scratcher for me since the family value voters support Rush Limbaugh who had 4 or 5 failed marriages and was sleeping around with a young CNN anchor, now married to a girl mucher yonger than he...I guess people can forgive when they desire. none of us are perfect...that's for sure...

Well, good point of comparison (to bring up Rush as a point of comparison to Gingrich)...
...but if you're going to go all out in slander & gossip, at least get your facts straight.

4 or 5 marriages? (C'mon you're already knew when you typed that it wasn't accurate...nobody's married 4 or 5 times)

For the record 4 times...and per Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rush_Limbaugh)...his first wife filed for divorce -- not him...He filed for divorce #3).

But then again, in an adulterous-minded America, we don't know if other-spouse adultery prompted any of the filings.

Wikipedia doesn't mention who filed in divorce #2...since the ex-wife remarried the following year, it gives a clue that she wasn't necessarily a divorce "victim."

Finally, though, while you may want to continuing mentioning Rush as a point of comparison re: Newt...ya might also wanna remember that the character bar can be a bit lower for say, a talk-show radio DJ than...oh, THE leader of the free world. Right?
