Corker rules out presidential bid
Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) has officially ruled out a presidential bid.
{mosads}The move isn’t exactly a surprise — Corker hasn’t mentioned any interest in months — but his announcement removes one potential candidate from a crowded field just as a number of others are gearing up for a bid.
“I have no plans to pursue that,” Corker told WPLN on Monday. “I’m very challenged with my current role as chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. It’s involved me in things beyond what I ever anticipated. … I haven’t thought of it by the way, in months and months and months, as I saw the field shaping up in a good way.”
