As questions about Newt Gingrich's past infidelity have hit him in the polls, one GOP mouthpiece warns his current wife may cost him the presidency.

Fightin' words: Meghan McCain, the daughter of Sen John McCain and MSNBC correspondent, targeted Callista Gingrich in a bizarre attack

Meghan McCain, the daughter of Sen John McCain, a blogger and MSNBC correspondent, targeted Callista Gingrich in a bizarre attack today.
Callista is Mr Gingrich’s third wife, and it has been revealed that she and Gingrich had begun a relationship while the ex-House speaker was still married to his second wife, Marianne.
Miss McCain said she believes that a background like that could sink Mr Gingrich's hopes of being in the White House.
'I think the fact that she was a third wife and a mistress and is coming off somewhat icy and [her] reputation of being somewhat controversial within their campaign is doing damage.'
She added: 'Maybe just to politicos, but I think it's something that people, and especially values voters, will bring into the race.'
But Miss McCain’s father John McCain, twice a presidential candidate, is on his second marriage to Cindy McCain, Meghan's mother.

The couple began dating in 1979, but Mr McCain’s first marriage did not officially end until 1980, according to a 2008 L.A. Times report.
Miss McCain joined MSNBC as a contributor last month about the same time as another political daughter, Chelsea Clinton, got a similar NBC gig.

But despite the bad press and attacks from rivals, one business is embracing Mr Gingrich cheating and all, and has offered its full support.
A billboard ad for AshleyMadison.com, which helps men and women cheat on their spouses, has sprung up in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, emblazoned with Mr Gingrich's photo.

In the photo, Gingrich has his finger over his lips in a 'shhh' gesture with the words ‘Faithful Republican. Unfaithful Husband. Welcome to the AshleyMadison.com Era.'
The site’s founder, Noel Biderman, said in a statement to The Morning Call: 'Gingrich proves that marital fidelity has no bearing on someone's ability to do a job.

'Rather than judge him, Americans have finally embraced the reality that affairs are commonplace, and perhaps paradoxically, might be an indication of great leadership to come.'
Mr Biderman added: 'He is not the first nor last politician who will step outside of their marriage.
