Common now. You have to admit Newt has some dirt that they can pull up. I like Newt, and think he would be a good leader, but that doesn't mean his past is clean.
Which leads me to ask this: How important is the moral character of a president? Take Clinton for example. Certainly screwed up from a moral standpoint, but wasn't he good at what he was being paid to do? Newt has some bad marriage baggage, which I believe was wrong, but does that change his ability to lead this country?
I don't look to politicians as role models anymore than I do pro athletes and movie stars. That isn't their job in my book.
