Washington - Senator Hillary Clinton said in an interview broadcast on Tuesday it was unlikely that she would again seek the presidency and has no interest in serving on the Supreme Court.

Clinton was asked by FOX News to respond on a scale of 1 to 10 whether she'll make a second run for the White House.

'Probably close to zero,' the former first lady said. 'There's an old saying: Bloom where you're planted.'

Clinton, a former lawyer, said the chances of her being nominated to serve on the Supreme Court are 'zero' and the likelihood of her becoming Senate majority leader is 'probably zero.'

'I'm not seeking any other position than to be the best senator from New York that I can be,' she said.

Clinton made the comments while on the campaign trail in support of Senator Barack Obama, her former bitter rival for the Democratic presidential nomination.
