And Don't Ask Me No Mo'!

She said she's not running!

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice sought to end speculation Monday that she might be a vice-presidential running mate for Senator John McCain.

While praising Mr. McCain, Republican of Arizona, Ms. Rice said in an interview, “I don’t want to be, don’t intend to be, won’t be on the ticket.”

She said she would return to academic pursuits at Stanford University at the end of the Bush administration.

I wish folks would stop asking!
