Exclusive: Biden almost certain to enter 2020 race
By Amie Parnes - 02/14/19 12:05 PM EST

Former Vice President Joe Biden is almost certain to enter the 2020 presidential race, according to sources familiar with his plans.

“It’s pretty clear he’s jumping in,” said one source with direct knowledge of the would-be campaign’s moves, adding that Biden is “95 percent there.”

In recent days, Biden has sought to build support from grass-roots activists and is specifically asking donors for their help in the lead-up to an announcement, according to sources.

In phone conversations, Biden has been making the case for why he’d be the best candidate in what is already a crowded field.

“Here are the facts: He’s coming off a great midterm,” said Robert Wolf, the Democratic mega-donor who confirmed he spoke to Biden on a 25-minute call on Wednesday.

Biden's been drooling ever since the opportunity arose.  Of course, he was drooling before that, also.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

It’s great fun to enjoy ourselves at the prospect of a candidate Biden. But in politics you gotta always take the other guy seriously. 50/50 there’s enough fruit cakes out there that would vote for him in a general election. It’s the magic of politics.

If he did, it'd be as a one-term place holder for his VP candidate - probably someone with gender and minority appeal, like Harris.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Uncle Joe may be a fruit cake but I don't think he's quite as much of a whackadoo like AOC.  Looks like Clinton is out of the picture and I'm still waiting for Beto.

What a field; Uncle Joe, Warren, Harris, Booker, Castro, Gillibrand, Buttigieg, Klobuchar, Gabbard, & Delaney.  Did I miss anyone?

Waiting for Beto? Well, he fizzled at his hometown antiwall rally with his spastic performance. The media lovefest ended the next day. But wait he gets the Oprah treatment on Saturday. Announcement on Sunday?
