Rice said Tuesday she's not interested in being McCain's running mate.
(CNN) — Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice dismissed rumors on Tuesday she is angling to be John McCain's running mate, telling reporters she plans to head back to Stanford University. "I very much look forward to watching this campaign and voting as a voter," she said. "I have a lot of work to do and then I'll happily go back to Stanford." Rice served as Provost at Stanford from 1993-1999, and remains a tenured professor there. "Senator McCain is an extraordinary American," Rice also said of the presumptive Republican nominee. "A really outstanding leader and obviously a great patriot." Filed under: Condoleezza Rice John McCcain |
