"He's the last person I'd vote for for president of the United States,” Coburn said, per the Tulsa World. “His life indicates he does not have a commitment to the character traits necessary to be a great president."
Coburn said that Gingrich’s personal history indicates that he “doesn't know anything about commitment to marriage.”
would I vote for him? I don't know, and would his personal life damage his chances at winning? Of coruse, but his marriage history really shouldn't have anything to do with ability to governs the country.
I really do not care what one person has to say about who they would or would not vote for.
Gingrich has had numerous affairs, cheated at least one wife, did an awful global warming propaganda add with Pelosi and endorsed a very liberal RINO in upstate NY. I would stay home and not vote if he was the candidate.

Those are awfully weak reasons not to vote for someone. You'd stay home? Would you prefer four more from Obama?
The most intelligent, talented, knowledgeable, experienced person on either side of spectrum.
I will put his personal life aside as we need someone with all these characters and past success to get us out of this rut the dems and Obama has put us in.
His vase knowledge of foreign affairs is also a plus.
Like his personal life or not, he is by far the cream of the crop to get things done.
I would vote for him in a heartbeat just on his accomplishments and his intelligence.
Things can change before 2012 but if he runs I would go with him for now.

Character counts to me; he's cheated on more than one wife and is a RINO, there's no difference between RINO's and Obama anyway; that's how Obama got elected in the first place; Republicans acting like Democrats.
I would not vote for Gingrich unless I had no other choice and frankly I do not want to hold my nose again when I vote for President. The man is exactly like Obama except for ideology. He's an academic type, full of ideas, but no experince implementing them or managing anything. We don't need another President who lives in his head. Plus, he's the ultimate Washington DC insider. Then there is his messy personal life that makes you doubt his character. And on top of all of that he's a snooze. But primarily, I would not vote for him because he has been a politician, an analyst, a professor, a historian, a consultant, a documentarian and a book author but never a mayor, governor, CEO or business manager that would demonstrate he has what it takes to make this country run successfully.

A cheater? He certainly is that, but a RINO, OMG, where have you been? He is as conservative as they come (well almost)
As for character counting? It should count, but we have to be realistic, we have someone in the white house right now that I do not think has much character...
