I like Biden. I could definitely see myself supporting him over quite a few of the GOP candidates.

[Gallium]

Unusual for Dick Harpootlian to go on background.

[SATW]

Good.

[Lumine]

I hope Biden runs, if only because I believe he is a politician that deserves to end his career with a bang rather than just fade away in the background.

[The Mikado]

If Biden wanted to be seriously considered, he'd have jumped in three months ago. Too many people are committed to Clinton now...if the Vice President had been in the race in May, Clinton wouldn't have nearly the same financial/endorsement bandwagon she has going now.

Unless they start bailing, due to ensuing events. Which ensuing events, is why Biden is seriously thinking he might have a real chance, if Hillary is viewed as a loser, as she continues to take on water.  Her refusal to take a position on the Keystone issue is going to haunt her. That was way, way too cute.

That was the same reason why Hillary stayed in the race in 2008 after the North Carolina/Indiana primaries. We all know how well it worked out.

I would support him on the democratic side. Unlike Clinton, I don't think he's an evil person at the end of the day.

As a supporter of Jeb Bush, this makes me very happy. While I am confident Governor Bush can win against Hillary Clinton, the road to 270 is much more complicated against Clinton that it is Biden. Joe Biden won't be able to hold together the Obama coalition. Hillary Clinton is often undisciplined on the campaign trail, Joe Biden is even more so.

However, if I am wrong and Bush does lose to the Democrats, I'd rather it be Biden than Clinton because Biden is not a criminal like Hillary and the only reason he's been so left-wing in the last eight years is because he's been part of the most left-wing administration in three generations, in reality Biden is liberal but more pragmatic than Clinton or Obama.

Hillary is not a criminal. As far as Benghazi goes, there may very well be some negligent middle management person who deserves criminal charges, but not Hillary herself.

Biden or Clinton 4Prez.

He wasn't going to jump in with his son dying.

[The Other Castro]

I still don't think he'll actually end up running.

[Donald Trump 2016 !]

If it's true that Beau wanted his father to run in 2016 and his son Hunter currently wants him to run as well, I guarantee Biden will make a last go at it. If the economy continues to improve and Obama endorses Biden, he has a strong chance at winning the nomination.

Our independents really seem to hate Hillary...

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

People are overhyping this, he ISN'T going to run!

Unless Hillary is caught on live TV sexually molesting babies then there is not a chance in hell for that to happen.

I was not referring to Benghazi even. I'm not sure there was a criminal cover-up, the problem is these investigations have come across as partisan because there are questions that remain unanswered.

The situation with the Clinton foundation and her email situation are likely criminal acts.

Bill Clinton endorsed Al Gore in December of 1999. Obama doing the same in December of this year for his Vice President wouldn't come as a shocker to anyone.

Al Gore had no serious opposition. Biden OTOH will run against Obama's former f(Inks)ing SoS.

There is some bad blood between Obama and the Clintons that will never go away. I don't think Obama has ever fully forgiven them for the race-baiting campaign they ran against him during the 2008 primaries, and I can't say I blame him.

1. There's quite a bit of bad blood between Obama and the Clintons. Don't let his appointment to her as SoS fool you.

2. If Biden enters the race and Hillary's scandals become serious that could shift momentum in favor of Biden to the point where Obama endorses his VP in order to keep Sanders away and the establishment happy. It's not that far fetched.

Did you seriously think Trump was gonna be where he is currently in the polls? Stranger things have happened.

Even if that was true, which isn't, the same could be said about W. and McCain in 2008.
I am really surprised by the fact that stating the obvious (Obama won't endorse anyone as long as the primary is competitive) is met with so much surprise or hostility.
