Newt Gingrich to Get Big New Hampshire Endorsement
By Serafin Gomez
Published November 27, 2011 | FoxNews.com

Fox News has learned that former speaker of the U.S. House and current GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich will receive the coveted endorsement of the highly-influential New Hampshire newspaper "The Manchester Union Leader," an endorsement Republican rival Mitt Romney has adamantly sought.

The endorsement of the conservative newspapers' editorial board places an exclamation point on Gingrich's impressive surge from has-been GOP contender to front-runner, and sets him apart as the new anti-Romney candidate amongst his competitors.

Gingrich has now fully reached a pinnacle as a front-runner. He shares this title with Romney, who has established himself as the consistent man to beat by the amorphous GOP field.

The endorsement suggests Gingrich has the potential to beat Romney in the New Hampshire primary. This "first in the nation" primary is considered to be a must-win for Romney.

Despite the Union Leader's endorsement of Gingrich, Romney has a commanding lead in New Hampshire according to fresh polls.

In a new Suffolk University/7News survey the former Massachusetts governor garners a whopping 41 percent of Republican voters.

Gingrich and Libertarian Ron Paul are tied for a distant second place with 14 percent.
