Liberal ABC News Targets Newt Gingrich With Interview With Ex-Wife

  • Here is Newt Gingrich’s January surprise. Why qualify ABC News as “Liberal”? Because they are fooling themselves, as are all mainstream media outlets, if they think they are objective. In the 2012 we are seeing and will continue to see the Liberal media do whatever it takes to take down Republicans that pose a serious challenge to President Obama’s re-election hopes. It appears there is a preference in using women to accomplish this. Remember Herman Cain? Now ABC News has an interview with one of Newt Gingrich’s ex-wives that will likely not do Newt any favors. From the AP:

    ABC News plans to air an interview with the second wife of Republican presidential contender Newt Gingrich on “Nightline” just two days before the GOP’s South Carolina primary.

    Excerpts from the interview with Marianne Gingrich will be released during the day Thursday, ABC News spokesman Jeffrey Schneider said, ahead of both a Republican candidate debate Thursday evening in Charleston, S.C., and ABC’s late-night news program.

    ABC News has not indicated what Marianne Gingrich said in the interview. Her ex-husband has said that they don’t have a relationship.

    The interview comes as Gingrich, the former House speaker, is trying to topple GOP front-runner Mitt Romney by casting himself as the more conservative option in the GOP presidential race. It would shine a spotlight on a part of Gingrich’s past that could turn off Republican voters in a state filled with religious and cultural conservatives who may cringe at Gingrich’s two divorces and acknowledged infidelities.

    Marianne Gingrich has said Gingrich proposed to her before the divorce from his first wife was final in 1981; they were married six months later. Her marriage to Gingrich ended in divorce in 2000, and Gingrich has admitted he’d already taken up with Callista Bisek, a former congressional aide who would become his third wife. The speaker who pilloried President Bill Clinton for his affair with Monica Lewinsky was himself having an affair at the time…

    Back in 2010 we read that Marianne thinks Newt is unelectable. Strange that she still has Newt’s last name is it not? Can we conclude from this that the Left is really wanting to have Mitt Romney as an opponent?

    Didn't she come forward on her own though?

  • It's the timing of it that raises questions. Why not do it last year?
