President 2012: Newt Gingrich’s Ex-Wife Marianne Unloads Her Bitterness

This is a 20 year old story, but will likely have some effect on Gingrich’s performance on the South Carolina GOP Presidential primary election on Saturday.

But, how much?

Marianne Gingrich has said she could end her ex-husband’s career with a single interview.

Earlier this week, she sat before ABCNEWS cameras, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

She spoke to ABCNEWS reporter Brian Ross for two hours, and her explosive revelations are set to rock the trail.

But now a “civil war” has erupted inside of the network, an insider claims, on exactly when the confession will air!

ABCNEWS suits determined it would be “unethical” to run the Marianne Gingrich interview so close to the South Carolina Primary, a curious decision, one insider argued, since the network has aggressively been reporting on other candidates.

A decision was tentatively made to air the interview next Monday, after all votes have been counted.

Gingrich canceled a press conference on Wednesday to deal with the matter.

“He believes that what he says in public and how he lives don’t have to be connected,” Marianne Gingrich, Newt’s wife of 18 years, explained to ESQUIRE last year.

So, the interview of Marianne Gingrich will air on television tonight and Newt has already appeared on the Today Show.

Will South Carolina voters see this for what it is = a political hit by a bitter ex-wife?

Hard to say.

Guess we will see in the South Caarolina exit polls on Saturday.
