Wake up. You may be willing to excuse Newt by dumping on Marianne Gingrich.
Irrelevant.
Newt cannot defeat Obama with this story hanging on him. Sorry. Better to admit it now than later. If it was published already in 2010 that doesn’t negate it’s impact now, not so much among Republicans as among the general electorate, should he get the nomination.
So what if Marianne is bitter.
Even if his first marriage was a mistake and “didn’t work out,” and he gets something of a pass on that and the hospital divorce request story is a lie and all of that.
He cheated on his “second” wife. That alone is bad enough. But he was narcissistic enough to ask her to let him have a steady mistress??
Do
you
really
expect
the
general
electorate
to
give
him
a
pass
on
that?
Think hard about this, now, while there’s still time.
The general electorate gave a pass to Clinton in 1998-1999 by a margin of 68% to 32%.
They said it didn’t matter.
What matters is the future, not the past.
There’s lots of people who led better lives, but they didn’t throw their hat in the ring.
:: But he was narcissistic enough to ask her to let him have a steady mistress?? ::
Nope, he was narcissistic enough to make her admit failure and use the “divorce” term first.
The General electorate obviously don't care about such things.
