Tancredo says he won't run for Congress again

'DENVER (AP) - Republican presidential candidate Tom Tancredo said Monday he will not seek re-election to his Colorado seat in the U.S. House but will remain in the presidential race.

Tancredo said illegal immigration, his core issue, now has national prominence and he doesn't need to stay in Congress to promote it.

"The issue now has a life of its own and it doesn't need one particular person to champion it," he said.

"I feel my job, my task, has been completed. And I am very much at peace with the idea that if I'm not elected president then I won't be running" for another term in Congress, he said.'
