Hunter Biden: Beau's health 'absolutely great'

Beau Biden's behind-closed-doors announcement last week that he would skip a third term in the attorney general's office to focus on a governor's race only added to speculation that he has not fully recovered since surgery at a Texas cancer center last August.

But the attorney general's younger brother, Hunter Biden, appeared on MSNBC on Tuesday, telling Andrea Mitchell that Beau is "doing great."

"He's doing absolutely great," Hunter Biden said. "It was a scare. You know how close I am to my brother. It was very scary. But he's back to work. He's been back to work. He's doing great.

Here's the video, skip ahead to the 5:15 mark for the discussion on Beau:

Hunter Biden, calling Beau the "best brother in the world" and "one of the best public servants out there," told Mitchell that his brother will "most likely" run for governor in 2016.

"He didn't think it was fair to the state of Delaware to run for Attorney General simply for the platform to run for governor.....He's going to finish up his term as attorney general and then see where we go from there, most likely it's going to be a race for governor of Delaware," Biden said.

Molly Magarik, Beau Biden's political director, said the attorney general is committed to a governor's race in 2016.

"What Beau told his supporters and the public stands," Magarik said. "Hunter was merely paraphrasing Beau's desire to complete his current term, and not run a gubernatorial campaign from the AG's office.
