Washington (CNN) – Following the resignations of most of his senior staff and questions about whether he had the commitment to mount a full presidential campaign, Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich told supporters Friday he knows what it will take and is committed to enduring the rigors in order to get his message out.

"As someone who has been in public life for nearly forty years, I know full well the rigors of campaigning for public office. I will endure them. I will carry the message of American renewal to every part of this great land, whatever it takes," Gingrich said in a message emailed to supporters and posted on his Facebook page Friday.

The former House Speaker repeated he is still in the race and that he will take part in the CNN-WMUR-Union Leader debate Monday night in New Hampshire.
