You?ve probably already heard about the idea that Gingrich will ?humanize? himself by ?Campaign[ing] With Pets and Music?:
Newt Gingrich?s campaign has decided to take another route on his bid to the Republican nomination: pets and music.
The campaign said today that it will soon launch a ?Pets With Newt? site aimed at Gingrich?s love for animals, intended to show a ?lighter side? of the candidate. ?As speaker I made it possible for people in public housing to keep their pets in 1988. I love pets so we?re going to have an entire project,? Gingrich said.
Gingrich doesn?t have any pets at this time, but he told ABC News today he and his wife Callista want a dog in the White House?
My emphasis. This is emotional tone-deafness on a scale approaching Romney-esque.
The campaign also plans to release a music education video starring Callista, who is a classically trained musician and signer. ?A music education video from my wife will be on the importance of music education and her background as a classical French horn player and a singer in the Basilica.?
The campaign?s approach is to show a fun side of the former Speaker of House and involve Callista more in the campaign.
?We?re going to do things that are interesting and positive and fun and try to get back the idea that you can have citizenship,? Gingrich said. ?Politics doesn?t have to be mean and nasty and disgusting. You can actually have fun as citizens working together.?
Yeaaah?he?s not giving up the Wingnut Welfare fallback career, which may be the only indication of intelligent foresight Newt?s shown recently. And speaking of ?mean and nasty and disgusting?, I do believe Mr. TBogg nails it:
... Callista Gingrich is the singularly least appealing First Lady-in-waiting to shuffle down the pike since probably Mary Todd Lincoln. I can?t honestly believe that Gingrich?s campaign people are on-board with making this botoxed trailer park Pamela Harriman a focal part of the campaign. This is all on Newt. Put aside the six-year adultery binge which is between Callista and her Catholic Jesus (who has his hands full enough as it is with priests treating altar boys like the entree line at the Golden Corral), there ?s not enough Vaseline in the world to soft-focus the lens and make Callista appear warm and fuzzy. As a trophy wife she?s more Third Place Runner-up material and Miss Congeniality she is most definitely not; Callista?s so brittle she makes Nancy Reagan look like Sarah Silverman. Excuse me ? she makes Nancy Reagan look like a drunk Sarah Silverman.
It?s almost as if Newt wants his campaign to dash upon the rocks whereupon he?ll put the blame (No. It?s you, not me?) upon Callista who brought him down with her siren call and also that thing she does with her tongue. Don?t ask. No. Really. You don?t want to know. Then Newt can make plans for another comeback ? his third act ? where he?ll enter [stage right] singing What I Did For Love while letting his piggy eye roam over the chorus line as he casts about for, yet again, another leading lady.
