I'm up for re-election in 2014, and yes I do plan to run for re-election.

I'm running for governor; I'm not running for a legislative office.

I am a registered Democrat and two-time unsuccessful candidate for office.

I am running for governor of Kentucky as the people's advocate.

I'm not running for president.

I like candidates who tell me something that is going to make a difference to me.

I have absolutely no interest in running for president again. None. None. I mean, I know that's hard for some people to believe, but, you know, I just don't.

I want to be the candidate placed on the ballot by the people, not the party.

One of the promises I made when I ran was, I'll never vote with my reelection in mind.
