Newt Gingrich is hinting that he might finally disband his struggling presidential campaign this week if he is unable to mount a surprise victory in Tuesday's Delaware presidential primary.

The former House Speaker told NBC News Monday that he would have to "reassess" his bid if he's not able to place well in the state, where he has devoted significant time to campaigning.

"I think we need to take a deep look at what we are doing," Gingrich said. "We will be in North Carolina tomorrow night and we will look and see what the results are."
