Washington (CNN) - Though it would have been next
to impossible for him to garner the signatures necessary to get on the
Republican primary ballot by Tuesday afternoon, Indiana Rep. Mike Pence
re-iterated Monday that he has no interest in running for the Senate
this year.
National Republicans courted Pence to challenge Sen. Evan Bayh last
month, before it was known that the Indiana Democrat was going to
retire. Former Sen. Dan Coats entered the race earlier this month, but
Pence's name was mentioned again after it was learned that Bayh would
not seek a third term.
