BREAKING -- Duncan Withdraws

January 30, 2009 | 2:13 PM

RNC chairman Mike Duncan is addressing the members gathered at the Capital Hilton -- and withdrawing from the race:

"Obviously the winds of change are blowing at the RNC. I trust the vision and judgment of my fellow members."

More: "At this time I wish to withdraw my nomination as chairman of the RNC. I want to thank President Bush ... It has truly been the highlight of my life."

Big applause. A standing ovation.
