Marianne Gingrich should have spoken up when it would have really mattered [View all]

I feel for her, but to wait until he's running for president to "tell the story" is not all that helpful.

She knew what he was doing while the impeachment nonsense was going on, and she was silent.

People who "come forward" years later to announce "Oh, I knew about that waaaaay back then", are more than a little annoying.

While I do NOT agree with her politically, I admire Jenny Sanford for coming right out and saying what a creep her husband was, and then divorcing him ASAP.

Having said that, she probably DID it for monetary reasons primarily (since SHE was the source of his political-money mojo.)
