January 20, 201214 yr So ABC has an interview today with one of Newt's ex-wives (I think the 2nd). She makes claims such as Newt wanted an "open marriage." ABC has come under some fire for this report. Fair story or not? Why or why not?
January 20, 201214 yr Maybe the issue is whether the story is fair or is the timing of the story fair. I think most folks already knew that Newt was a dirtbag re. marriage.
January 20, 201214 yr Author Maybe the issue is whether the story is fair or is the timing of the story fair. I think most folks already knew that Newt was a dirtbag re. marriage. ABC had a report on yesterday about Mitt and offshore accounts. The reporter felt it was only fair to have a Newt story a well.
January 20, 201214 yr Is reporting it fair? Sure. I thinks it's also another example of our superficial, tabloid media, on the other hand.
January 20, 201214 yr 1st question in debate. http://legalinsurrection.com/2012/01/charleston-debate-newt-took-1st-question-about-ex-wife-wrapped-question-around-john-kings-neck-and-tightened/ Gingrinch may have found a new rallying statement. "No, but I will."

Newt is the king of getting the red meat out there but he's always done that and look where it's gotten him.

It did not hurt in him SC. http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/main/2012/01/gingrich-maintains-6-point-lead.html#more This will become a two person race eventually. Romney and Gingrich. Both have baggage. While it is clear the establishment is all in for Romney Gingrich will make it interesting.
January 20, 201214 yr ...and Sen Santorum won Iowa. Yep...not Romney. Romney is the darling of the establish because they have run the numbers and found he will get enough middle spectrum voters to win in November. But his not a favorite of most rank and file Repubs. Hence why everyone else was in the lead at one time or another as people looked for an alternative. The best Repub is not running. But he gave a heck of speech in NJ this week.

The man was at the head of the "Lynch Clinton" media blitz and pointing out his adultery while carrying on an affair himself. he is on his third marriage and claims to speak for values just as he did when the first two marriages failed. I personally can not get passed that hypocrisy to trust him.

I personally can not get passed that hypocrisy to trust him. His counter and his supporters counter is that he has found God and is now a changed man. Is that enough to look past these old stories?
January 20, 201214 yr Fair story or not? Why or why not? Yes because all's fair in love, war & politics.:idunno:
