Bet the three wives and two divorces had a lot more to do with Newts slide than any attack ads

That is the kind of stuff that eats on people when they think about it for a while.

Though, having Newt calling Romney a liar on live TV ... twice ... sure will make a nice political ad for us.

Thanks Newt.

1. I just don't get why divorce and remarriage

would matter to most American's since 50%+ have been divorced or will divorce. That Newt is a lying, conniving douche, now that's a reason not to support him.

6. It isn't just divorce and remarriage

It is divorce and remarriage while lecturing gays about how they are destoying marriage. It isn't just divorce and remarriage it is leaving his first wife because she isn't pretty enough to be first lady while she was fighting cancer. It is having her and his children beg for food at her local church because he didn't pay child support. It isn't just divorce and remarriage, it is leaving his second wife, ill with MS, after having an affair with a younger woman, while impeaching Clinton for his affair. It is telling that second wife that it only matters what he says not what he does.

9. How many people ask for divorces when their spouse is in the hospital?

But your statistics are outdated. The divorce rate is lower now.

http://articles.cnn.com/2011-05-19/living/divorce.rates.drop_1_divorce-rate-divorce-laws-marriage?_s=PM:LIVING

After divorce laws became more lenient in the late '70s, divorce numbers peaked around 1980 and began to level off.

But a new report from the U.S. Census Bureau finds divorce rates for most age groups have been dropping since 1996 by an average of about 5 percentage points.

One reason that fewer couples landed in divorce court may be that people were waiting longer to get married and that about a third of men and women ages 25 to 29 have never married.

The numbers come from the report "Number, Timing, and Duration of Marriages and Divorces: 2009," which tracks changes in the population's coupling patterns.

2. yes, that plus (if Gingrich is the nominee) all those of Republicans who worked

NG and called him "arrogant" and worse.

3. I don't think it mattered

I think it was more of a matter of "wait....Newt Gingrich...you mean that guy? Oh shit, I thought it was someone else. Who's next, Santorum?"

Newt didn't have a snowball's chance in hell...he has zero tact.

4. The attack ads were a waste of money

Everybody thinks Newt is a worthless douchebag anyway,

5. Freddie Mac didn't help much either

I'd say that was even worse for him because it was fresh. I think he'll start to really sink after Iowa.

7. That doesn't make any sense ...

Newt was so passionate about America that he inadvertently fucked two women who were not his wife.

He realizes that was wrong, and so now, he wants to demonstrate his passion for America by fucking the country directly.

How can the people of America not feel the love he has for us??

Now ... bend over!!!

8. More likely his egotistical remarks. He really is a tone-deaf asshat. n/t
