John Kasich says he has no interest in running for President in 2016 (Video included)

Eight months before he faces voters in his reelection bid, Ohio Gov. John Kasich on Wednesday attempted to squash rumors that he's considering a White House bid in 2016. 

"I'm flattered that people are thinking that I should run for president, but I'm not interested," said Kasich. "I'm sorry - I'm just not interested in it."

Kasich's denial comes after his Democratic opponent Ed FitzGerald last month challenged him to sign a pledge vowing to serve a full term if reelected this November. 

"I tried to run for president back at the end of the '90s and 2000 and no one was interested," Kasich told 10TVs Kristyn Hartman. "And, I really was trying. Now, I'm not interested and everyone puts your name up. So I don't know what that says about life."
