Rich Galen confirms to readers of his Mullings column that he's signed on to be an adviser to Fred Thompson's presidential bid.
This probably means that Newt Gingrich won't run for president this year. Galen is one of Newt's top (informal) advisers, and it's hard to imagine that Galen wouldn't seek and obtain Newt's blessing before joining Thompson.

Newt will endorse Rudy after Labor Day.
You heard it here first!
