Biden should run. Now [barf]
Yahoo! News ^ | March 5, 2015 | Matt Bai

It’s doubtful that many voters care as much about Hillary Clinton’s State Department emails as reporters do. They’re probably not too wound up over the foreign contributions flowing into her family foundation, either. Cumulatively, though, these latest headlines about Clinton, along with other stories sure to come, reinforce her vulnerabilities as a candidate. Democratic primary voters are about to be reminded on a semiweekly basis of what left a lot of them so ambivalent about Hillary in 2008 — namely, the perception that the Clintons are like an unregulated industry within the party, impervious to scrutiny and contemptuous of anyone who would get in their way.

And this is why, if I were Joe Biden, and if I still harbored designs on the Oval Office down the hall, I’d be inclined to ignore what the insiders were saying. I’d run, and I’d run now.

Biden's staff undoubtedly floating trial balloons for him as an alternative to Hillary.

Laughable.

Sure, why not.
Our highest political office isn’t enough of a joke yet.
*eye roll*

I'm sure his supporters will come in droves for a free shoulder massage...

Oh, by all means please encourage this.

It finally occurred to me the other day what he was trying to say when he used a particular vulgarism. He was trying to talk about his “battle buddy.” But he malaprop’ed worse than the Archie Bunker character in doing so.

Oh please Donkey Party, please do. Please promote the Big Buffoon. Better vulgar than egotistically preening.

You have to wonder exactly who at the Whitehouse is feeding the NYTimes the inside skinny on Hillary’s email. I mean investigative reporting is dead. The Media is utilized to settle political scores.

This Yahoo editorial makes it look like Biden could be behind Hillary’s revelations.

Frankly, I think he SHOULD try to run. If only in forcing Obama to either make a choice between him and Hillary OR not make a choice at all.

Tremendous opposition play opportunity here folks. Obama cannot endorse Hillary (for a myriad of reasons) or Biden (same thing) or he picks one and is hamstrung by the other. Quite the pickle I’d think.

Can you imagine the press cover he'd get if he ran?

Neither one of those two will be modest, although Biden does seem the more sincere. What are Biden’s biggest skeletons? They have to be pretty little compared to Hillary!’s.

Biden has that “An idiot and an Idiot, too” problem.

Biden’s skeletons are not in a closet. They are front and center on display...

A lot of people who are inveterate Democrat voters would rather go for that than for a caustic, distant Hillary.

It’s time for America to have a clown president! Rimshot Joe would bring more loonyness to the White House than we’ve ever seen before!

Sure. Bat**** crazy voters were the majority in 2008 and 2012. Why shouldn’t they have their own president?

We could only be so luck if Biden was the RAT nominee. It would make the general election a comedy.
