The man is not and was not ever presidential material: character matters! If we were willing to impeach Clinton for the Lewinsky Affair - and I supported that (think of the threat to National Security via blackmail) - then we must be willing to cut Gingrich loose and ignore him.

Says Newt: “I endorsed the Republican who has been endorsed by the National Rifle Association, opposes the Obama health plan, signed the ‘no-tax-increase’ pledge, and supports a comprehensive energy plan like I do.... If you seek to be a perfect minority, you’ll remain a minority.” More like if you try to elect Democrat Lites, you end up with Democrats. Been there / done that. The NRA endorsed her because she has a pro-gun record, whereas Hoffman hasn't been in office. Hoffman is actually an NRA member, but that didn't help. She doesn't oppose Obamacare any more than Hoffman does. She signed the pledge this past Thursday. Where had she been before then? Then right after that, she tries to get a reporter arrested who questions her about that and a couple other things. Hoffman signed it more than two months ago. And she can't have any more of an energy plan than Hoffman I'm sure. This is crap. Newt, why not just be honest and say you'll back any person that has an R after their name. That's the same approach that had us pouring money down the toilet for people like Jeffords, Chaffee, Specter, etc. Dede is a perfect candidate to switch parties after using R money to get elected if it will suit her cause. Why not say you're backing the Kos Kandidate? The Corner has more.

Even toss in a mea culpa. It might get a little bad press out of it, but earn a lot of good will (and perhaps future donations) rom conservatives nationwide. There is no way at this point that Scozzafava can win, the NRCC has to have figured it out. It is either Hoffman or the democrat.
