The Newt Gingrich campaign found itself in a state of confusion Friday night when reports surfaced that Gingrich would cancel all of his stops in North Carolina next week, fueling suggestions that Gingrich would be suspending his campaign. But the campaign says nothing is happening.
Two people close to the Gingrich campaign told ABC News they were contacted and told all of Gingrichs North Carolina stops had been canceled, although R.C. Hammond, communications director for the campaign, said there was a communication glitch.
There was confusion, but we will maintain our North Carolina schedule next week, Hammond said.
One person close to the campaign said the stops were certainly canceled, then resumed after news reports left looming suspicion, even among his own staff, that Gingrich was suspending his campaign.
On Friday, the vice chairman of the North Carolina Republican party told the Shelby Star that he was contacted and told a stop a tavern in Kings Mountain, N.C. was canceled. (edit)
Hammond denied the stops were resumed purely to extinguish speculation Gingrich was dropping out.
The North Carolina guys were instructed that the schedule was going to be redone so they called and told people, now theyve got to call and tell them its back on, Hammond said.
Gingrich will campaign in Delaware Saturday and will also campaign there Monday in a final push to pick up delegates. Hammond said Gingrich will not be dropping out any time soon, and certainly not before Tuesday.

It was Newt who cleared the slate for Romney, Onyx, by gleaning votes from Santorum. And I don’t know what you mean about Bella but it sounds like that was some sort of derogatory comment, which I pray it is not, as that would be a low blow.
Santorum dropped out for lack of funds and because he was sabotaged by the RNC, who chose Mittens as their heir apparent long ago. Newt will drop out for the same reason as Rick. When the funds dry up, it’s over. Adelson kept Newt going longer than he would have.
Romney’s PACs raised millions and millions over seven years and he will likely be the nominee because he outspent and attacked his opponents without restraint.
Santorum gave him a run for his money and should be very proud of himself. His grassroots, low budget campaign, of which I was proudly a part, caused Romney and his minions to waste alot of time, money and effort..which is a good thing!
“Newt isnt perfect”
Newt has such a panoply of imperfections, flaws and betrayals, you can’t dismiss them with a simple pre-emptive admission like this. It’s the political equivalent of saying “Jeff Dahmer isn’t perfect, but.....some of his recipes are delicious!”
Newt never had any business running for President. Period.
“$38,000-$44,000 of US Taxpayers just for one (1) day for Newts Secret Service agents”
....Plus the cost of drinks & hookers.

There's no such thing as bad advertising. ;)
All the way to Tampa, baybeee!
Just voted for Newt in NC early voting!
If he really keeps his promise and goes all the way to Tampa, I’ll send him another donation.

I may as well. I’ve already sent him two donations.
It’s Newt, regardless. I won’t vote for that scum sucking swine, Romney.
Me neither.
