MR. SNOW: To begin, some non-election related news out of Iraq. First, there were stories yesterday that Zal Khalilzad would be leaving as ambassador after the elections. Not true. No imminent plans for departure. The President is glad Zal is an effective ambassador.

Seems like the stories were true Tony...

President Bush plans to nominate U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Zalmay Khalilzad to replace John Bolton as the new U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, according to ABC News.
