Newt Gingrich is lagging in the polls and in fundraising. But as he explains, he’s just waiting his turn for when he goes one-on-one against Mitt Romney – and then he’ll win.

The Des Moines Register reports:

In Maquoketa he compared the race to a dance, where he is letting other candidates show their moves while he remains standing.

“At some point I think it’s going to come down to Romney and me,” Gingrich said. “Once we get down to a two-person debate, then I’m reasonably confident I will win,” Gingrich said.

Gingrich is also confidently but cautiously preparing himself for his next face-off: An epic battle with windmills.
