Gingrinch: flawed past makes him "more normal" than those "seeming perfect".
from TPM..
In an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network, Newt Gingrich offered an insight about the controversies surrounding his personal life: That he has gone through the process of confessing his weaknesses and went to God for forgiveness — and this makes him “more normal than somebody who wanders around seeming perfect.”

“Well, I think it’s important. It’s also important that they recognize that I have not hidden from the facts of my life, that I have confessed my weaknesses, and that I have had to go to God for forgiveness and for reconciliation,” said Gingrich.
“And I think most people can identify, either with themselves or with loved ones, that life has moments that are very sad, you wish wouldn’t have occurred. And you look back on them and you seek forgiveness for not having done everything you could have.
“So, I think in that sense, it may make me more normal than somebody who wanders around seeming perfect and maybe not understanding the human condition, and the challenges of life for normal people.”
