Newt Gingrich called House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan's (R-Wis.) endorsement of Mitt Romney a big win for the former Massachusetts governor.
"It's a great achievement for Mitt Romney," Gingrich said Friday on Charlie Sykes's radio show. "Paul Ryan is one of the rising stars in the Republican Party."
Gingrich said both the endorsement from Ryan and from Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) earlier in the week were big gets for Romney. Absent from the entire interview was any criticism by Gingrich toward Romney or Rick Santorum, both of whom have maintained much stronger leads over the former House Speaker in recent polls.
The lack of any criticism is part of Gingrich's revamped campaign strategy: a spokesman for Gingrich recently announced that he would refrain from criticizing his primary opponents and instead focus on making it to the Republican National Convention.
Additionally, Gingrich said in the interview that although Romney isn't the inevitable 2012 Republican presidential nominee, if he does get the 1,144 delegates needed to clinch the nomination, he and the rest of the Republican presidential field would rally around Romney.
"I have no doubt that once he gets 1,144 delegates we will all unify and support him," Gingrich added. "I think Mitt Romney is clearly the frontrunner. I think he will probably get 1,144 but I think he has to earn it."
Gingrich's comments came a few days after he and Romney had a private meeting ahead of the Louisiana primary on Saturday...Gingrich said he had also recently met with Santorum and that all three candidates "talk regularly" about defeating President Obama.

Well, doesn't that ruin the day.
Still- I'm in, til Newt's out.
“Paul Ryan is one of the rising stars in the Republican Party.”
Well that explains it. I am sure he was made aware that the Republican Party expected certain things of their rising stars.
*** “I have no doubt that once he gets 1,144 delegates we will all unify and support him,” Gingrich added. ***
Son of a *$#!&
Now Newt is a RINO! The list is getting long.
Coulter
Limbaugh
Rubio
Demint
Ryan
It’s going to be a long 4 years during Obama’s 2nd term.

Looks as if Newt is in the new administration. So, I guess better that than nothing.
Gawd, to think these slime ball establishment bastards have managed to pull off another theft.
I puke when I see the present man child president on yapping his lying mouth in front of the cameras. I will gag and wretch when Romney gets in front doing the exact same thing.
So, the only thing to do is load the administration up with insiders to do mischief.
How very, very sad for what’s left of the Republican Party.
We’ll have another Dole/Bush/McLame candidate who is:
Pro-Abortion
Pro-High Taxes
Pro-Homosexual Lifestyle
Pro-Mandatory Health Care shoved down our throats.
Pro-Appeasement at all liberal shenanigans
It’s sad that people like Newt, Palin, Bachmann (my favorite), Bolton, and Santorum are not anywhere in the race and, therefore, we’re stuck . . . again . . . with a certified liberal. I am so fed up!
The liberals must be laughing like hell at us . . . the perfect chance to get this illegal alien out of our White House, and we have a DO-NOTHING-CONGRESS and a highly liberal, willing-to-tell-you-anything democrat at the head of our ticket.
I guess Romney Inc. finally met Newt’s asking price. Pathetic.
I have insisted I will not vote for Romney, but I got a wake up call this morning with a WSJ op-ed about the fact that four Supreme Court justices are 78 and older - Scalia being one of them. Gov. Romney does not have a history of appointing conservative justices, but when Pres. Bush tried to give us a so-so justice, Congress did put pressure on him to step up to the plate and we got jewels. I am now considering voting for Romney over Obama if he is the candidate.
Newt may not be perfect, but then nobody is. However Newt is certainly the smartest, most fiscal & defense conservative of all who ran in 2012.
Well how about that. Newt meets secretly with ROmney. Adelson (Newt’s main source of funding) indicates he’ll support Romney. And now, Newt is playing nice with Romney. mmmm mmm mmmm
Huh? How? Gingrich was just acknowledging the obvious. He didn’t say he wanted it to happen or was leaving himself. Heck, Santorum has already said he’s willing to be Romney’s VP.
I am really disgusted with all these people - Coulter, Limbaugh, Ryan, Rubio, etc. Romney is nothing but a statist in Mormon underwear, and I have no idea why these people have suddenly annointed him.
The meeting was before LA, and it involved all three of the candidates (everybody except Paul). They wanted Gingrich to drop out, and he refused.
Why didn’t he drop out for Santorum?
Newt is not saying anything different than he ever has. He would support Romney over Obama if push comes to shove. He feels with Ryan endorsing Romney before Wisconsin, it helps Romney over Santorum and Rubio also is a huge influence. But Newt will continue as he has always said. The establishment is circling the wagons and trying to shut things down quickly. Newt still plans to go to the convention.
I’m in with Vin.
Make the bastuhd earn it and then I still won’t support him.
Doesn’t matter. The sycophantic California GOP does and they don’t need me anyway.
Eff em...
The probabilities are that Romney will get the nomination. If by some miracle he then wins the election, those supposed conservatives who endorsed him must be held responsible for keeping him on the reservation. Rubio, Ryan, et. al., will own it when Romney does his inevitable lurch to the left.
