Senate approves Callista Gingrich as ambassador to Vatican

By HENRY C. JACKSON

The Senate on Monday confirmed Callista Gingrich, the wife of former House Speaker and GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich, to serve as U.S. ambassador to the Vatican.

The vote was 70-23, with Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and several other Democrats joining all Republicans in favor.

Callista Gingrich serves as the CEO of Gingrich Productions and is an author, filmmaker and former congressional aide. Her husband was an outspoken supporter of, and informal adviser to, Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign.

She is the third wife of Newt Gingrich, who converted to Catholicism when he married her.

Trump had announced her nomination in May.

I get her confused with Cindy McCain.

Dang!  I wanted that job.  Except for the new Pope ... Remember what we used to say:
'Is the Pope Catholic?'

Not sure this one is.
