FOX sources: Joe Biden to announce presidential run
Fox 5 NY ^ | 10/19/2015

Posted on 10/19/2015 12:51:11 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Sources tell FOX News Senior White House Correspondent Ed Henry that Vice President Joe Biden will enter the presidential race.

Three sources close to @VP telling me he's expected to announce he is running but the sources are all urging caution on 48-hr timeline— Ed Henry (@edhenry) October 19, 2015

There has been heavy speculation that Biden would run for the Democratic nomination. It was unclear, however, if he would be willing to endure the campaign trail following the death of his son earlier this year.

U.S. Rep. Brendan Boyle (D-PA-13) took to social media Monday to say Biden would be running.

I have a very good source close to Joe that tells me VP Biden will run for Prez— US Rep Brendan Boyle (@RepBrendanBoyle) October 19, 2015

Calls within the party for Biden to run have been fueled by concerns over Hillary Rodham Clinton's email controversy and declining popularity. Her strong debate performance last week dampened some of that talk.

FOX sources: Joe Biden to announce presidential run

This should be funny. Of course the media won't cover Biden's constant stream of stupid commentary.

If true ( and I am unsure about this ), here’s the big question -— Why is he getting in now after Hillary had such a “strong” debate result? (at least that’s what all pundits, including Trump himself tell us ).

You could understand him jumping in if she’d been terrible, creating a vacuum on the center-left, but if anything she gave wavering Dems a reason to have new confidence in her.

And yet Joe Biden is undeterred. How come?

Run Joe Run.

Schadenfreude.

It is very satisfying to see the Democrat Part free-falling into obscurity at the presidential level.

They suck so bad, that not even the Republicans can screw this election up this year.

Well, he might as well enter. This is his best and last chance to ever get the nomination. It will be quite fun to watch him lose the general in a landslide.

All the talk about Shrillery’s “strong debate performance” is just being exchanged in the media echo chamber. She is not likeable and not trustworthy, and as a result can’t draw a crowd on the campaign trail.

The democrat leadership realizes they are “fettered to a corpse” and they want an alternative.

The RATs are going to plan B.

Biden will name Hillary as his running mate, then one day after he's sworn in he'll resign for "health reasons". Voila... Hillary takes her rightful place as president.

The way HilLIARy was kissing obama butt the other day i thought that she had come to an agreement with him NOT to nail her

But it is just like him to throw her under the same bus as all the others

Supposedly, although Hillary did well in out-Commying the commie, it hasn’t resulted in any changes in her favorability/unfavorability ratings. She’s still perceived as a snarky, bitchy liar with a spine-tingling cackle by a substantial portion of the American public, although I can’t imagine why... (sarcasm off)

Is this a signal that Hillary is headed to the Big House and not the White House, courtesy of those Vast Right Wing Conspiracy dudes at the FBI?

They want Biden in because they realize Hillary will lose to Bernie in a one on one race. They want a vote split with Hillary winning at convention.

They couldn’t write the script much better.

If this is true, IF, expect some more big heavy shoes to be dropped (or thrown) on Hillary’s reputation as Secretary Of State. I hear shes been very tense lately, more than usual.
She was arguing with a young lady staff who turned to walk away, when Hillary grabbed this staffer’s arm, spun her back around saying “Don’t you turn your back ON ME!!” Just imagine if a conservative did that, planting their paws over somebody to move them in a negative and aggressive manner.

If Biden runs, Obama has a free hand to jail Cankles.

Because he knows his boss’s decision regarding the DOJ and prosecuting Hilary?
