Joe Biden on 2016 Decision: 'I Regret It Every Day'

[Purveyor]

WASHINGTON (AP) -- You can take Joe Biden out of the presidential campaign, but you can't take the campaign out of Joe Biden.

Three months after bowing out of the 2016 competition, the vice president has a few second thoughts about his decision.

"I regret it every day," Biden said Wednesday.

Still, he said he made the right call for his family and for himself. And he pledged to stay "deeply involved" in the race to replace President Barack Obama.

"We've got two good candidates," Biden said, praising Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders for engaging in a "robust debate" devoid of personal attacks. He glossed over the third candidate running for the Democratic nomination, Martin O'Malley, whose campaign has struggled to gain traction.
