Newt makes it clear that he ain't planning on going nowhere.

Gingrich To Reporters: 'Did You Miss Me?'

Newt Gingrich took questions from reporters in Las Vegas, following Mitt Romney's big victory in the Nevada caucuses.

One reporter asked Gingrich about his absence from reporters for a few days, while he was reportedly meeting with donors.

"Did you miss me?" Gingrich answered with a clear note of sarcasm. "Okay, I was worried that you may not have noticed."

He then explained why he was working on strategy. "Well we got together for a very practical reason. I was surprised by the degree to which the establishment has closed ranks, and made quite clear that they're desperate over the prospect of a Gingrich presidency. I was amazed by George Soros saying in Davos that he was happy with either Obama or Romney, because it was not a difference of policy, it was just a change in personality."

He then explained that he and his campaign concluded that the establishment would go all out to defeat him, with Wall Street money and other resources — but that the people would not go along.

"Do they want two George Soros-approved candidates in the general election, or do they want a conservative, and one George Soros-approved candidate?"
