According to StopTheACLU, former Speaker Newt Gingrich will announce his decision to abandon his 2008 presidential ambitions.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich won’t run for president in 2008, FOX News learned Saturday.

Gingrich is expected to make an official announcement later on Saturday, two sources told FOX News.
Gingrich has said a few times recently that Huckabee is the "dark horse" candidate of the GOP contenders.

And although they could be presidential rivals, Gingrich and Huckabee have been pretty cozy lately. On Monday, the former Speaker of the House guest-blogged on Huckabee’s page and offered what looked like a very friendly pat on the back.

“Over the past few months I’ve been very impressed with the Governor’s openness to new ideas and solutions for improving our country,” wrote Gingrich. “He showed genuine leadership a few weeks ago by being the first candidate to sign the Nine Nineties in Nine debate pledge.”

Newt has vision. So does Huckabee. I predict the two will collaborate soon. Stay tuned.
