Presidential race...

I am watching Dr. Drew on TV right now. The topic right now is Newt Gingrich's ex-wife's video. She talked about him wanting an open marriage and her refusal to have one.

Running for president is basically a form of self annihilation. If you so much as peed on a tree in the playground in preschool, they will dredge up when you are running for president. Everything you have ever done will be dragged through the mud. From cheating on a test in 6th grade, to getting drink for the first time in high school. Nothing is sacred, nothing is private and nothing is kept out of the media. I am not saying that one doesn't need to be held to some standards when they are running for any government office. However, he has been in the political field for some time now, and now she decides to come out with this interview. He cheated on his wife, not good. Does it mean he can not be president? No. His personal life has nothing to do with his presidential capability.
No one on this planet, can say they don't have something in their past that they are not proud of. Something they did, that at the time, seemed like a good idea, but in hindsight are not the best choices we could have made.
If, and I said if, because obviously we are dealing with a bitter woman, who has not moved on with her life, what she says in her interview is true, it was in the past. Not to mention, you should have left him when he asked you for an open marriage.
Not one of us can judge Newt Gingrich for his indiscretions, only God can do that. Only God can forgive us of our sins and judge us for who we are and what we have done. God is our judge, jury and executioner.
So, anyone basing their election votes based on the interview this obviously jealous, bitter and scorned woman, then you must be able to look at yourself in the mirror and know you are perfect and don't have a single flaw in your past.
