"He would have to get into the race at a point where he was seen as a savior, not a spoiler"

Just now on MSNBC, so no link.

Discussion of Joe meeting with Elizabeth Warren and speculation over whether he would run.

Said he's polling higher than Hillary in the area of trustworthiness.

That is all.

He polls way behind Hillary and even Bernie at this point. He'd be one of the oldest presidents elected. He voted for the bankruptcy bill and oppose the Bin Laden raid. That is a massive liability. And if people are looking for change, the sitting VP isn't it.

We really don't get anything different from Biden except a guy we personally like.

If he was, he would have laid the ground work over a year ago, and been in the race four months ago at the latest.

I like Joe a good bit, but no reason to get into it now ...
