The media criticism has not been fair. Why should I care what a candidates ex wife thinks of him?[/quote]

Media criticism?  Do you think this is all a media creation?  I thought conservatives were for personal responsibility.  This guy ditched his first wife when she had cancer.  We now know he ditched his second wife after she was diagnosed with MS.  During that time he was in charge of the House, leading the attack on Clinton for Monica Lewinsky a white house staffer 27 years his junior) while Gingrich himself was screwing his future third wife, who was in fact a house staffer 23 years younger.  AND despite the surreal parallels between these personal failures, Gingrich sees no hypocrisy in this!

THAT is the issue, the fact that he sees no conflict between what he preaches and his personal behavior.  So because he talks routinely about the sanctity of marriage, yes it is entirely relevant that he proposed and open marriage arrangement.  This isn't just a bad marriage leading to an affair which leads to divorce.  This is him actually proposing open marriage.  AND NOW he's not apologizing for it, he's openly denying it.  Which is exactly what he did when he was accused of taking 1.5M in lobbyist money from Fannie and Freddie.  Exactly how he has rationalized his ethics fines as non-fines.

Either he is unable to examine himself, or he is unashamed to say anything, however crazy, that works to his political advantage.  Either is not a suitable trait for a President.[/quote]
