Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is denying rumors that she might become President Barak Obama's running mate instead of Vice President Joe Biden.

She also said she's planning to retire from her position as secretary of state, whether or not Obama wins re-election.

"I think, after 20 years, and it will be 20 years, of being on the high wire of American politics and all of the challenges that come with that, it would probably be a good idea to just find out how tired I am," she told State Department employees Thursday.

Clinton said she has no idea what she'll do next.
