Joe Biden has dreamt of this moment. Hillary Clinton’s campaign is in free-fall and Republicans are busily re-enacting Lord of the Flies.
After a lifetime of striving and six years as Loyal Number Two, the door has inched open for Biden to run. He has a shot and could be extremely dangerous to the GOP.
Hillary Clinton’s polls are crashing. The once inevitable shoe-in for the Democratic nomination is now trailing Republican candidates Bush, Walker and Rubio in critical swing states Colorado, Iowa and Virginia.
Voters don’t trust Clinton, and that reading is likely to get worse, since she now faces a possible Justice Department investigation over her use of a personal email server while Secretary of State. The inspector generals at the State Department and the country’s intelligence agencies have determined that contrary to earlier denials, Clinton received and sent emails on her personal server that contained classified information. There is nothing honest or transparent about any of this sorry saga, and Clinton will struggle to put it behind her.
Hillary’s email issues are a windfall for Biden, one that backers increasingly think he will seize. His son, who died of brain cancer, urged him to run; throwing his hat into the ring might pay genuine homage to Beau’s memory.
President Obama is known to be very fond of his vice president, to whom he has frequently turned for help with Congress, and with voters. He is not fond of Hillary, and the Beltway gossip mills for months have suggested that the White House is quietly engineering Hillary’s defeat.
Nonetheless, Biden could well overtake Hillary and win the Democrat nomination. Then it will be up to Republicans, who are busily eating their own. Biden could well be more dangerous than untrustworthy Hillary could. The GOP better shape up.

Hillary will commit suicide if the 2016 Democrat Primary Season is a repeat of 2008 and she sees that she will never be the first woman POTUS.

You really think Biden would do any better? Obama’s veep?

Oh ____!
Ah, one of the reasons why I love reading on freerepublic.com
The comments are better than the articles!!! It’s hard to get to the bottom of them all without at least cracking a smile or, in this case, laughing out loud!
Joe has been #2 his whole life.
Dems manipulation of old Joe Biden should be charged with abuse and manipulation of a gullible senior for profit.
The only thing left in Washington are these ass holes in office are the laughs. Can the republic be saved? No.

I am not kidding.
