Gingrich Will Announce Plans Soon, Spokesman Says

February 27, 2011 | 12:48 p.m.

Amid reports that Newt Gingrich will announce within the next 10 days whether he's running for president, a spokesman told National Journal today that Gingrich remains on track to make a decision soon.

Gingrich has said repeatedly in recent months that he would announce whether he's forming an exploratory committee for president in late February or early March, said spokesman Rick Tyler.

"So next week would be early March," he said. "We're on the same timeline."

He declined to say whether the former speaker of the House has made his decision, or what that decision is.

"Newt will make up his mind in his own time," Tyler said.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported today that Gingrich will announce the creation of his exploratory committee within 10 days. The Associated Press also reported that he will announce his intention in the next two weeks.
