Newt Gingrich Will Soon Announce He Is Running For President

Call it a hunch, a prediction, or stay-at-home dad’s intuition, Newt Gingrich is running for president. After I heard the audio of Newt Gingrich on Dr. James Dobson’s Focus on the Family talk radio show, where he discusses his issues with infidelity in the past, I had to ask myself, why would he bring this up at this time? Simple, he is going to run for president and he wants to be the first to bring up the issue before other Republican candidates use it against him.

It will be interesting to see if conservatives will forgive Newt for his philandering, while condemning Bill Clinton for his fat girl foray. Adultery in my opinion is not a mistake I consider forgivable for the leader of the free world. Some differences between the two are obvious: Slick Willie did it (literally) in the Oval Office, had no intention of marrying the human humidor, and left his deposit on the outside of the drop box. Newt was much more upfront about his affair, resigned as a result, and married the woman he had sexual relations with. In no way am I justifying Newt’s indiscretions, I am simple stating that all things are not equal.

I’m not alone in my predictive prestidigitation, Matt Towery at Townhall.com seems to have a little ESP also. Mr. Towery writes:

Gingrich Is In, It’s Just A Matter of When

Gingrich’s current “September strategy” is to wait to be drafted as a GOP candidate after the collection of uninspiring options now announced all stumble into next year with strategies as flawed as Gingrich’s debate-the-unknown-opponent concept was in 1980.

But Newt is fiddling while Rome burns, as campaign checks are being reluctantly written to second-tier choices from sources that would be only too happy to finance Gingrich were he a candidate.

I never ask Newt Gingrich questions. I’ve never needed to. I know his history like the back of my hand, as I do his brilliant but sometimes whacky political thinking.

Trust me. Newt Gingrich will run for president…(link)

I trust you Mr. Towery. I don’t need to be bludgeoned with “The Imperial ClueBat™.”

So are you convinced yet that Newt will throw his hat into the ring, or will you only believe it when Newt officially announces that he is officially considering deciding that he might be interested in being your next commander-in-chief?
