RNC Chairman Michael Steele ruled out a presidential bid in 2012, ABC News reports.
Said Steele: "In all honest-to-good seriousness, that is such silly Washington talk. It's just not even on my mind."
When pressed why he didn't rule it out completely, Steele insisted, "I just did. I don't know how many different ways I can do that. How many different ways can you spell 'no'?"
