Last Night Newt Gingrich's Gay Sister Spoke With Rachel Maddow
Rachel Maddow has been desperately chomping at the bit to interview one of the major contenders in the GOP Field of Crazy. Last night, playing a subtle "game of degrees," she scored Candice Gingrich, Newt Gingrich's gay, half-sister, who is a well known gay rights advocate...as well as a well known critic of her half brother.
The interview is kind of genius: these types of interviews, with friends and family members, are generally conducted to establish an air of humanity to a political candidate—clearly, this one doesn't...what do you think?
