"My decision, which I'll announce shortly, will not be predicated on what anybody else does," Rubio said in a phone interview from Washington, where he gave a speech and had meetings this week. He brushed off suggestions that he may run for attorney general, saying he's passionate about federal issues.

Oh please, oh please, oh please....
