The Post's Jennifer Rubin chats with Gov. Bob McDonnell (R) for her blog written from a conservative perspective aptly titled Right Turn. Here's an excerpt:
"He was less willing to talk about 2012. I asked him if he would make a Shermanesque -- or Christie-esque -- promise not to run for president. He didn't bite. He merely said that he has 'many new initiatives' he wants to see through and that 'there are any number of good candidates, including some former and current' governors, he would look forward to supporting. Yes, he sure left some wiggle room there."
