ABC News\u2019 Michael Falcone reports: Newt Gingrich says \u201cit\u2019s clear the country is talking to itself\u201d and what they\u2019re saying is: \u201cWe need Newt Gingrich.\u201d In an interview with Fox News\u2019 Sean Hannity that will be broadcast Wednesday night, Gingrich acknowledges that even he\u2019s been surprised by his rapid rise in the GOP primary field. \u201cWhereas I would have thought originally it was going to be Mitt and not-Mitt, I think it\u2019s going to \u2014 it may turn out to be Newt and not-Newt,\u201d Gingrich tells Hannity, according to excerpts of the interview . \u201cAnd that\u2019s a very different formula than, frankly \u2014 I mean we\u2019re having to redesign our campaign strategy because we\u2019re at least 60 days ahead of where I thought we\u2019d be.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

When asked about his ties to Freddie Mac and his business interests as head of the Gingrich Group, the former House Speaker said that the media and the Obama campaign were out to get him. \u201cSome elements of the press \u2014 largely the Obama reelection team \u2014 are determined to distort everything they can,\u201d he said. Gingrich said he considers himself \u201cthe more conservative candidate by any rational standard\u201d as well as the most electable. <\/p>\n

Among the qualifications he listed: \u201cI helped Ronald Reagan and Jack Kemp develop supply side economics. I helped lead the effort to defeat communism in the Congress.\u201d<\/strong> And in the interview, which will air at 9 p.m. ET on Wednesday, he offered mostly praise for his opponents. According to Gingrich, Michele Bachmann \u201cbrings a lot to the table\u201d; Herman Cain \u201cis a very good businessman\u201d; Mitt Romney \u201cis a great manager\u201d; Rick Santorum \u201cis a genuine expert on Iran and foreign policy.\u201d \u201cI think of them as my friends,\u201d Gingrich added. \u201cI have one opponent, Barack Obama.\u201d
