CNN on-air: Biden Consulting Advisers About 2016 Bid (HILLARY GROUP)

[DeepModem Mom]

Thoughts? Do you think VP Biden will run? How would Democratic Primary race be affected?

[Iliyah]

1. No. He will endorse HRC.

2. The report did mention his son's children, now without a father, and Biden's family responsibility.

3. From CNN or NY Times. Probably not

4. From what I've been reading

Probably not. I think it's too late to get in the race. Not impossible, just very difficult.

I've always liked Biden. He'd definitely be my 2nd choice but I think he's also looking at efforts Hillary has already made; setting up a national campaign, courting the proper advisers and financial contributors.

5. No. But DemTex put it really well here...

'At this point, for her to lose, it would probably have to be something cataclysmic, either a major scandal (which, despite the hopes of Bernistas, the email thing is definitely not), a health thing, or something like that. If that happens, I think that Biden would probably enter and win.'
