It seems to me so many ppl here are missing the point.
No one here is suggesting that Gingrich behaved properly towards the women in his life. His excuses are about why he made the wrong choices under whatever pressures he claims he felt. By his own account, he repeatedly makes bad decisions under pressure.
Surely a track record of repeatedly making the wrong (and happily for Gingrich, self-serving) choices under 'pressure' automatically eliminates him from consideration as Prez. The whole point of the electoral process is to select a candidate who will make correct choices under the enormous pressures of the Presidency.
If he ruthlessly and cynically wounds those nearest and closest to him what will he do those not so near or close? Whatever his politics, this person's loathsome record of self serving, destructive and morally bankrupt decisions and behaviours eliminate him from any consideration for high office.
Exactly...much like McCain's ill-fated decision,made under the unrelenting pressure of a Presidential campaign,to offer Palin the vice-presidency slot exhibited his unfitness for office.
