Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, a Republican Party favorite whom many hoped would run for president, was forceful in his insistence that he does not wish to be No. 2 to Mitt Romney on Fox News Monday. “If I thought that call was coming,” said Daniels, “I would disconnect the phone.”
Daniels said he has not been contacted by the Romney campaign about vetting. “It’s not an office I want to hold, expect to hold, have any plans to hold,” Daniels said. “We ought to give some time to public service, try to pay back a little rent to this country, but my goal has always been to do the best I could and then go back to private life.”
