Gingrich Stars in Obama Attack Video on RomneyRichard Ellis/Getty Images(WASHINGTON) -- Just as Newt Gingrich is expected to formally withdraw from the presidential race, the Obama campaign has released a “greatest hits” reel of Gingrich attacks on Mitt Romney – the man he’s expected to endorse – all playing directly into the Democratic story line of presenting the former governor in a negative light.
The opening scene shows Gingrich on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight:  “As a man who wants to run for president of the U.S. who can’t be honest with the American people, why should we expect him to be honest about anything if he’s president?”

The minute and a half video — titled “Newt Gingrich: Frankly, not Mitt Romney’s biggest supporter” — features the former House speaker lashing Romney’s business record at Bain Capital; criticizing his lack of transparency — citing the Swiss bank account — and harsh immigration plan; and even doubting Romney’s ability to inspire people.
“Are you calling Mitt Romney a liar?” CBS’ Norah O’Donnell asks Gingrich in the final clip of the reel.
“Yes,” Gingrich says.
