“How in the world is this a dirty trick?
Marianne Gingrich’s 1995 Esquire interview has been discussed here on FR at length, and for months now...”
I think the “dirty trick” we’re discussing here is not the 1995 interview, but the upcoming ABC interview, for which they are debating whether or not to release before the SC primary.
The timing of this, combined with Romney and his Super-Pac’s scorched earth negative ads in Gingrich in SC look pretty suspicious. Mitt has proven already with his ultra-negative ads in Iowa that he’ll stoop to any level to win this nomination.
He’ll call Gingrich another Al Gore or whatever while having bought into the whole global warming nonsense himself, then he’ll claim with a straight face that he’s “always been pro-life” and been “as consistent as any human being could ever be” while trying to label others flip-floppers. He’ll claim Gingrich and Perry are “career politicians” when he’s been running for office since 1994 and has wanted to be POTUS probably since his old man lost out back in the 70s.
These last couple days have reminded me of what an absolute scumbag Mitt Romney is. There is no way I will lift a finger to help that guy get elected, and I’m 50/50 right now on whether or not I can even pull the lever for him.
Another rumor is that it didn't get any better after he died.
The third rumor was that no one at ABC thought such behavior or demands were at all strange and never complained about it.
So these are the people who've done some sort of interview with one of his ex-wives about Newt Gingrich?
There they are face to face with raw, uninhibited, real human heterosexual inclination.................
No doubt they didn't understand how to handle it. Bet she didn't either.
It might be interesting to see if her bank account has had an 'infusion' -
One thing for sure, Santorum will likely not have one word to say about it against Newt. He must be holding his breath hoping the U.S. news continues to be quiet on his wife's past.
Just how DOES the news decide on which stories 'must' come out and which to spike? - never mind...
I’m a little shy of 50/50 if it’s Mitt. I’ll likely vote for a third party or maybe write in someone, or maybe even “protest vote” for Paul, who I consider a nutjob.
