'Upset' Ralston says she's not going anywhere

WASHINGTON, D.C. --- Susan B. Ralston has determined to clear the air once and for all after speculations about her job at the White House have been published, including in the Philippine News.

“I am focused on my job serving the President in my current capacity,” she said in a telephone call from her office at the White House on December 12 to this correspondent.

...

Responding to the question about her leaving the White House on Dec. 31, as reported Nov. 29 by the Manila Mail, a bi-monthly metropolitan D.C.-based FilAm publication, Ralston said, “I don’t have any definite plans to leave the White House, on Dec. 31 or at another time. I do not know what my plans are, what I may or may not do, but I continue to work here at my desk.”

...

Asked if she may be called to testify again by Special Prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald regarding further investigation of CIA leakage and outing of agent Valerie Plame, and possible White House cover-up, Ralston said she could not comment as the case is still under investigation.

However, she stressed, “I have not been notified.”

The New York Times explores the roles played by Susan Ralston, the woman at the center of not one, but two investigations underway in Washington. Anne Kornblut writes that the personal aide to Karl Rove has been interviewed at least twice by the grand jury in the leak investigation, in addition to the interviews she's given to lawyers looking into the activities of Jack Abramoff, her former boss.
