"Be sure to watch Hannity this Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m CT. I will be on to talk about my run for President of the United States."

And with those words on his and Facebook pages, it looks like former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R) is saying he's definitely getting into the 2012 race for the GOP presidential nomination. Hannity is on Fox News Channel.

The Associated Press reports that Gingrich spokesman Rick Tyler will indeed say he's getting into the race.
