Gingrich tells Christian group of affair

By BEN EVANS, Associated Press Writer Thu Mar 8, 8:37 PM ET

WASHINGTON - Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich was having an
extramarital affair even as he led the charge against
President Clinton over the Monica Lewinsky affair, he acknowledged in
an interview with a conservative Christian group.

"The honest answer is yes," Gingrich, a potential 2008 Republican
presidential candidate, said in an interview with Focus on the Family
founder James Dobson to be aired Friday, according to a transcript
provided to The Associated Press. "There are times that I have fallen
short of my own standards. There's certainly times when I've fallen
short of God's standards."

"I will make a bargain with the Republicans.
If they will stop telling lies about Democrats,
we will stop telling the truth about them." -
