Callista Bisek Hits The Big Time

Although we've had our eyes on the little co-respondent for a while, even in this vulgar world it still means something when you're a living caricature, & are then caricatured & featured in The NYT.

Not a flattering likeness of Mrs. Gingrich, but they're paying attention.

How eager she is for him to run after he has been out of office since 1999 is a matter of discussion among their friends. Vin Weber, the former Republican congressman from Minnesota, said he is “quite convinced” Mrs. Gingrich is happily on board. “They’ve been out of public life,” Mr. Weber said, “and I think she misses the excitement of that.”

Others say she wants her husband to run because he wants to. She has hired Ms. Olson as her chief of staff; she is also writing a children’s book, due out in September — just in time for her to go on a book tour and reintroduce herself to the public as the primary race heats up.

“I think she has stepped out of her comfort zone more to promote the movies and the books and has found that she enjoyed that,” said Ms. Cottrell. “That’s been a little bit of toe in the water.“

The next Nancy "I want to be the queen" Reagan.

Another unflattering image, for those who (wisely) didn't visit The NYT.
