A friend sent me this link. Pretty despicable stuff from Fox News, if you ask me:

I'm inclined to agree with you, Toni. Dr. Ablow speaks with the authority of a medical doctor, although for the life of me I can't figure out how he can speak to this conclusion (given the difficulty in getting accurate data on either form of faithfulness): 

You can take any moral position you like about men and women who cheat while married, but there simply is no correlation, whatsoever—from a psychological perspective—between whether they can remain true to their wedding vows and whether they can remain true to the Oath of Office

More to the point, Mr. Gingrich's serial transgressions seem to indicate someone with an enormous ego and questionable character. We don't need another four years of that.

Dr. Ablow is one of those people who really just makes me scratch my head at times.  This is one of those times.
