Whew!

Vice President Joe Biden will not run for president in 2016, he said Wednesday, ending a months-long flirtation with a third White House campaign and setting him on a glide path toward the end of his decades-long political career.

Whew!
I don’t what is better news this week. Biden not running for POTUS, or the “clock” maker teen returning to the Middle East.
Joe Biden: the only VP dumber than Al Gore.
I never expected plugs to run ... he’s happy being happy
I am listening to Rush, and he keeps posing the possibility (and he thinks it is an improbability) that Hillary will be indicted due to the fact that democrats run the Justice department.
However, there doesn’t really need to be an indictment to stop Hillary. What if, in the hearings tomorrow, testicles belatedly, if not miraculously, descend with the Republicans and they release incontrovertibly damaging information on Hillary. We all know that they can, if they choose to do so.
Spiro Agnew now looks pretty damned good in comparison to Biden and Algore.
And now, no one is talking about the emails ‘just found.’ NO ONE.
0bama and Biden are protecting THEMSELVES with the announcement today.
“Spiro Agnew now looks pretty damned good in comparison to Biden and Algore.”
Not so much.
Wait till Friday. Paul Ryan has given Congress until this Friday to decide if he will have their complete loyalty and unquestioned obediance as Speaker Of The House. He ‘demands’
full compliance, or he will not run. Why bother running if that is the arrangement? Why not just ‘bestow’ the title?
This is what Ryan seems to expect. Of course he may be aware of how presumptious and arrogant this sounds. Paul may be setting himself up purposely to be rejected. That way he can get Boehner and the establishment RINOs off his back. “Hey, I tried to run, but I was rejected. Oh well.”
This is all a huge game. Biden announces the day before Hillary testifies. Maybe so she won’t throw Obama under the bus tomorrow. Now if she does get indicted that’s another plan.
Disappointing a zillion comedians.

Ding, dong - the witch isn't about to die and you're exactly right. No one survives intact trying to bury a Clinton.
Here is my take on this. I think that Hillary may in fact be indicted shortly and Joe (and Obama) has perfectly set the stage for being the noble and reluctant candidate who steps in to save the party at the last minute. His speech (though I did not hear it and have to rely on Rush’s analysis of it) was the speech of someone getting into the race, not out. This way he is not directly challenging Hillary and risking losing her die hard harpy voting block. He may even hint at a prominent position for her in his administration once she is fully vindicated as he will say he no doubt expects to happen.
Thoughts?
So he is still fodder.
As I said last week or so ... if William Kristol said it was going to happen, be assured that it won’t.
Now if I could just get him to tell me which numbers would NOT win Powerball.
Trump has been solidly in the lead since practically the day he entered the race. If not for Ben Carson, there wouldn't even be a race to talk about. As we come to the end of October, it's clear that the Trump candidacy is no "summertime fling." Trump is methodically putting together the ingredients for a landslide of Reaganesque proportions.
Joe Biden is simply getting out of the way of that.
That's my opinion.
Speaking of Biden, does anybody remember Walter Mondale?
Like Biden, Walter Mondale was a senator and a vice president. But we don't remember any of that, do we? Whenever we think of Mondale, we think about the man who got crushed by Ronald Reagan in a massive landslide.
I'm thinking Biden has enough brain cells left to know that he's better off being remembered as a two-term vice president.
No way will Obama’s Injustice Department indict Hillary - which is why she will skate yet again. Only Trey Gowdy can bury her and HE’s the one that needs Secret Service protection!!!
