Link to January 12 Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel article, "Ryan to host New Hampshire fund-raisers".Excerpt: Rep. Paul Ryan will be making a political stop in New Hampshire next month in what some see as an effort to take his national profile up a notch.
New Hampshire, the site of nation's first presidential primary every four years, is a favored location for potential presidential candidates. Ryan's visit to the Granite State set off some speculation that he's positioning himself for a future White House bid. But the Janesville Republican says he's not interested in running for president - at least in the short term.
"There is a zero percent chance I will be seeking the Republicans' nomination for president in 2012," Ryan said in a statement.
Others, however, note that Ryan, 39, has plenty of time to develop national ambitions.
