[from The Note, which is going on holiday <sniff> until Jan 2]

Although it's no secret that Richardson is seriously looking at a presidential run, spokesmen for his campaign called the inference "absolutely false" and issued a statement denying that the Governor had announced his candidacy claiming that "comments from the interview were taken out of context based on a hypothetical question that FOX News posed about the Governor's strengths should he run for President."

Steve Terrell of the Sante Fe New Mexican also Notes that Richardson announced he was running "followed quickly by a denial" in February 2005 and in "at least two appearances before out-of-state audiences Richardson has said in English he's not running, followed by his own 'translation' in Spanish that he is running."
