Newt Gingrich Continues To Slam Mitt Romney After Suspending Campaign

Newt Gingrich Still Attacking Mitt Romney

Newt Gingrich is expected to throw his endorsement behind GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney at some point but after dropping out of the race on Wednesday Gingrich continues to attack his former opponent at every turn.

Gingrich sat down for an interview with Wolf Blitzer on CNN’s Situation Room in which he basically called Mitt Romney a liar.

Gingrich told Blitzer:

“I still believe that the Romney campaign said things that weren’t true.”

When Wolf Blitzer outright asked Newt Gingrich “Forget about the Mitt Romney campaign. Is Mitt Romney a liar?”

Gingrich responded:

“The governor said things at times that weren’t true.”

Blitzer then attempted to push the question one more time at which point Gingrich shrugged and said one word “liar.”

This isn’t exactly ground breaking Newt Gingrich speak, he started calling Mitt Romney a liar way back in January, in fact he said it in even more specific terms with Norah O’Donnell, when Norah stated “You’re calling Mitt Romney a liar?” Gingrich responded:

“Well, you seemed shocked by it. Yes.”

While Gingrich admitted he thinks Mitt Romney is a liar he did a little damage control, noting that he would “trust him [Mitt Romney] a thousand times over” compared to President Obama. Newt also said he will campaign for Romney throughout the election.

In a final dig at the countries potential future leader he added:

“This is a comparative business. And our choice isn’t Mitt Romney or Ronald Reagan.”

Are you surprised by Gingrich’s refusal to fully get behind his political parties presumptive nominee for the Presidency of the United States?

    both Newt and Mitt are all over the place from an ideological standpoint! I wouldn't call either of them liars but extreme politicains and never statesmen……..

    No, I am surprised that he is even bothering to try. The GOP has left the principles of Ronald Reagan, Newt Gingrich and the conservative base long ago. Our party has been taken over by social progressives and elites and it has never been clearer than this "Primary" joke of a season!
