Gingrich in GOP race


Newt Gingrich may reconsider his White House bid if tonight ends with a disappointing finish in Delaware's primary. "I think we would need to take a deep look at what we are doing," Gingrich said in an interview with NBC news. Gingrich is currently doing campaign work in NC, but that may come to a jolting halt depending on how the primaries go today. Gingrich, having won only primaries in South Carolina and Georgia, trails far behind Mitt Romney in the race, with 141 delegates to Romney's 695 delegates, according to a CNN estimate. If Romney gets the majority of the delegates, there will be no point for Gingrich to stay. Gingrich has repeatedly said he would stay in the running until Romney secured the 1,144 delegates needed for the nomination, adding that he would then throw his support behind the likely GOP nominee.
