In his speech Tuesday night, after losing the Florida primary to Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich took aim at his favorite adversary: The elites who he says talk down to America.
“Now you’ll notice that a number of folks are holding up a sign about ‘46 States To Go.’
“We did this in part for the elite media, because you know the same people who said I was dead in June and July, and said I was gone after Iowa, who seemed totally quiet the night of the South Carolina primary, are gonna be back saying, ‘What’s he gonna do? What’s he gonna do? What’s he gonna do?’
“So I just want to reassure them tonight: We are going to contest every place, and we are going to win, and we will be in Tampa as the nominee in August.”
