How do you politely get a guy to stop hitting on you?

The Boy isn't here yet. It has caused some interesting issues at social gatherings. I have no idea what to do when a guy starts talking to me.
Maybe he is just friendly? How long should I let them talk to me before I tell them I'm married? Wot if they AREN'T hitting on me and then I look like a presumptuous arse? I see the conversation going like this
Guy: So you are new to San Diego?
Me: Yeah, moved here a couple months ago
Guy: Its a great place....yadda yadda
Me: ..*continue conversation to be friendly"
Guy: Yeah, you should come out with us some time.
Me: Well I'm married
Guy: I wasn't asking you out.
Me: er.....uh.....*dies*
I haven't been on the dating scene for a while so I have no idea how to skillfully let a guy know I'm taken but remain friendly in case they just wanted to make a new friend too (although I'm not sure how often that actually happens
)
Give me some sage advice

I personally appreciate the openness from the lady side.
You could just tell me: I am not interested, I am okay with the answer. There is nothing embarrassing, by doing so you saved me a lot of time and energy. A decent lady should know how to say no clearly.
Arj is gay?
He's going to have to share the spotlight now.

Uhhh, no he won't - Arj hasn't been around for quite a whole.

Guy: So you are new to San Diego?
Me: Yeah, my husband and I moved here a couple months ago.
1) He doesn't need to know you're there alone.
2) It will stop guys from hitting on you.
