South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford (R) said today that he does not expect to make an endorsement in the state's crucial presidential primary — deflating rumors that he was about to endorse Rudy Giuliani.

"I'm in the business of trying to take things off the plate rather than put them on," Sanford said. "I'm staying out of the presidential race."

However, Sanford close the door entirely on whether or not he'll openly support anybody: "I'm not saying never."
