Drudge Reports: ABC News sitting on damaging interview with Newt Gingrich's ex wife Marianne Gingrich until after South Carolina Primary

Breaking Story:  Drudge reports Marianne Gingrich claims she can end Newt Gingrich's career, ABC holding story till after South Carolina Primary.  So what is new?  My guess is it is not the things most conservatives would think are career enders (endorsing Dede Scozzafava over Doug Hoffman, cuddling with Nancy Pelosi on a couch, trashing Paul Ryan's budget reform, attacking Mitt Romney over Bain, etc.).  


Drudge also reports:  CNN SOURCE: 'WE HAVE REPUBLICAN DEBATE OF YEAR TOMORROW NIGHT. WE ARE GOING TO LET THEM JUST GO AT IT'... DEVELOPING... 


The Other McCain:  Newt mysteriously cancels press conference today (any connection?  Update:  Drudge confirms it was over this issue.)
Update:  Dana Loesch notes, we know plenty of bad personal stuff about Newt already, what possible new scandal could it be? (Dana Loesch notes:  "I don’t even know the content of this interview or what further revelations she could have on Gingrich, but unless it involves cross-dressing, drug trafficking, or other salacious details, I’m going to feel completely let down.")
Hot Air asks:  Who benefits from this?
Gateway Pundit:   Newt's daughters defend dad.
Politico:  Newt's daughters defend, appears to be related to Marianne and Newt's divorce...

Update II:  Newt says his ex-wife is very bitter...
Update III:   Right now, does Obama win?  
Update IV:  Marianne Gingrich claims Newt wanted an open marriage?  That she had to share him?
Update V:  Rush says he is sure ABC is carrying water for Obama against all GOP candidates...
Update VI:  I don't know about the rest of you...but Marianne Gingrich did not come off as very credible to me on the open marriage issue.  Did you catch at the beginning how sshe did not know of the affair (only suspected something was up) when Newt asked for the divorce, then later in the interview said Newt wanted an open marriage.  That does not make sense.  


And conducting the affair in the apartment in D.C. is not exactly the same as having encounters with his mistress at the family home.  Granted it is pretty skeevy of Newt to have done it, but it is not the same.
