Palin Says Interview With Ex-Wife Will Help Gingrich ‘Soar’ By Alex Seitz-Wald on Jan 19, 2012 at 5:00 pm Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin defended Newt Gingrich ahead of the airing of a shocking interview tonight with his ex-wife, whom Gingrich cheated on, saying the news will only help the former Speaker’s chances of winning the South Carolina GOP primary Saturday. Palin and her husband have endorsed Gingrich. Speaking on Sean Hannity’s radio show this afternoon, Palin played her typical game of conflating the “dumbarses” in the “lamestream media” and the political left, assuming that ABC News is airing the embarrassing interview in an attempt to derail Gingrich’s campaign. This will backfire, she argued, because voters don’t care about the fact that fact that Gingrich carried on an affair for six years while married, or that he asked his wife for an open marriage so he could continue the affair, or that he subsequently left his wife after she was diagnosed with a terminal disease: PALIN: I call them dumbarses. They, thinking that by trotting out this old Gingrich divorce interview that’s old news — and it does feature a disgruntled ex, claiming that it would destroy his campaign — all it does, Sean, is incentive conservatives and independents who are so sick of the politics of personal destruction, because it’s played so selectively by media, that their target, in this case Newt, he’s now going to soar even more. Because we know the game now, and we just won’t put up with it. So, good call media! Way to go to covertly hype this, even Gingrich opponents, for being so brilliant they sure are dumb. Listen here: In fact, the interview is not “old” but Marianne Gingrich’s first TV interview since her divorce from the former Speaker in 1999, and it does make news about how Gingrich — who often defends “traditional” marriage on the campaign trail — treated his wife of 18 years. But Palin, who calls herself a feminist, completely ignores the substance of Gingrich’s actions to portray him as a victim of just another tawdry lamestream media smear. “I have a degree” in journalism, she reminded Hannity.

Yeah, you can't make this stuff up, but you have to acknowledge that Gingrich hit it out of the park when CNN moderator (inquisitor) John King led off the debate questioning by diving headlong into this topic. Gingrich got a standing ovation when he tore King a new a$$^ole with his response. Folks that watch these debates are sick of the liberal inquisition format of these broadcasts. In many ways this is backfiring on the media who have orchestrated such attacks on candidates. I will add here that I am by no means a fan of the globalist, new ager, libertine Newt.
JER-RY!!! JER-RY!!! JER-RY!!! -------------------------------------------------------- Gingrich, who made a career of demonizing Democrats, gets all cranky when it's his turn on the griddle. The revelations of his second wife may not make a lot of difference to those who were determined to vote for him in the primaries but they will affect his ability to win over, if he gets the nomination, Republicans who were supporting another candidate and, of course, Democrats ... and the Republican nominee will need their votes to win. Maybe men will vote for him, but his open marriage hypocrisy will probably lose him women's votes. Adding his negatives together, it seems that it will be almost impossible for him to get elected.

Hmm, Does Palin want to become Newt's number 4? Asinine response from her, totally asinine. God is always good!
He's going to do her on the back of a live moose at the GOP convention.
This surely will help newtie soar just like the exposed infidelities made Herman Cain soar. Is this broad the dumbest? She hasn't a clue!
This kind of shows what kind of marriage her and her husband really have. Cheating is good now? She is off her rocker. God is always good!

Somebody ought to tell the truth about the Bible. The preachers dare not, because they would be driven from their pulpits. Professors in colleges dare not, because they would lose their salaries. Politicians dare not. They would be defeated. Editors dare not. They would lose subscribers. Merchants dare not, because they might lose customers. Men of fashion dare not, fearing that they would lose caste. Even clerks dare not, because they might be discharged. And so I thought I would do it myself... Robert Ingersoll
