I think Americans are tired of this type of BS "news". Looks like it set fairly well with the ladies in SC, or maybe it was the fact that Newt was a man about it, and told that debate moderator where he could stick it.

We're talking about his hair, right.

But, Conservatives only become indignant when it's tilted at them. We'll see just how "appalling" Newt finds mudslinging and trashtalking if it comes down to him and Obama.

My guess is that the phoney bastard will contradict himself again and again and again and again..................

Is it BS news to point out that a candidate who talks about restoring morality, etc. to have his serial immorality brought to the fore? Or a guy who tries to impeach a President for straying while he himself is getting some on the side? The issue here is hypocrisy (and shamelessness) IMHO.

I'm very much a "whatever works for two consenting adults" sort of guy.

I have no issues with what Newt and this ex-wife did or didn't accept between them but it's really hard for him to play to the base with this hanging over his head...

Exactly! You cannot legislate morality. This is the twenty-first century. When a town census includes married couples versus couples living together...well then.
If we could forus on what any candidate could bring to the office and make our decision based on that. I firmly believe it's not going to be a vote for a specific Dem candidate... as much as who will unseat Obama. There...I said it and I'm glad.

It's a matter of ethics and integrity and these should be very important to any voter. I had someone tell me once "if you lose your ethics, you lose everything.". Ive seen this come to fruition countless times. I think it's clear that Gingrich has neither ethics or integrity.

Even if it puts the whole country in the toilet? Had the GOP come up with anyone decent, but instead they sent in the clowns. Doesn't anyone wonder why the potentially "good" candidates did not toss their hat in the ring? Can you say Tea Party?
