Description | The Associated Press - NASHVILLE, Tenn.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who is considering whether to run for president, said on Tuesday the personal lives of White House hopefuls shouldn't become an issue in the 2008 campaign.
Earlier this month Gingrich went on Focus on the Family founder James Dobson's radio program to confess and seek forgiveness for his own extramarital affair committed while he pursued President Clinton's impeachment in the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
The former Georgia congressman said he's received a positive response from colleagues and others.
"Most Americans are very positive and very receptive," Gingrich said before a speech at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. "Overall, it's been remarkable how positive people have been." |
