Republican Presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani will drop out of the race for the White House and is set to endorse Arizona Sen. John McCain as the GOP Presidential nomination tomorrow during a Republican National Committee conference at the Ronald Regan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif., high level sources have told NBC News.

This comes after a bitter loss for the former New York City mayor to John McCain, who won Florida's presidential primary today. On the Democratic side, Sen. Hillary Clinton won the state's nomination, even though Democratic party leaders vowed not to count Florida's delegates because of an unapproved early primary date that irked Dem. chairman Howard Dean.
