What The Definition Of “Marriage” Is of the Day: Speaking out for the first time since divorcing Newt Gingrich in 1999, the presidential candidate’s second wife Marianne revealed to ABC News’s Brian Ross that Gingrich asked her for an open marriage after coming clean on his six-year affair with then-aide, now-third-wife Callista.

All this was going on while Speaker of the House Gingrich was working to impeach Bill Clinton for lying about his affair with Monica Lewinsky. “At the time, I believed him to be ethical,” said Marianne, who now insists Gingrich does not have the moral character necessary to be President, and wants voters to know what she knows.

Gingrich, who is ahead of Mitt Romney by 6 percentage points in the most recent South Carolina poll, was asked at a campaign event today for assurances about his character.

“I’ve been very open about my life,” Gingrich replied. “I’ve been very open about mistakes that I’ve made, I’ve been very open about the need to go to God.”  

The full interview with Marianne Gingrich is set to air tonight at 11:35 PM ET on ABC’s Nightline.
