Joe Biden gauging politics, staffing for 2016 run

http://www.cnn.com/2015/10/19/politics/joe-biden-decision-president-2016/index.html

Vice President Joe Biden's associates are setting up interviews for potential staff positions on a Biden presidential campaign, a source familiar with the process tells CNN.

The interviews come as the political world waits for a decision from Biden on whether he will enter the Democratic 2016 presidential primary.

Biden met with his top political advisers Monday night -- the same group he met with at least twice last week.

Also last week, Biden made calls throughout the week to ask Democratic operatives and officials to work for him if he does enter the 2016 race, people familiar with the conversations told CNN.

The best thing about Joe Biden is his honesty. I even like his foot-in-mouth tendency.

But he has thrown that one good thing out the window by trying to change the story about killing Bin Laden. He screwed himself over, just in time to give his opponents ammunition right when he annouces.

It's too late, really, but I wish he'd just make his announcement and get on with it, whatever it is. He's really lost credibility by delaying for so long.
