> First Read: “Every day that Biden waits to create a fundraising apparatus (to finance a sitting vice presidential — with his security detail in tow — campaigning across the country) makes it harder for him to compete against Bernie Sanders, let alone Hillary Clinton. A Biden confidante told one of us that the vice president’s chances of jumping into the race are now as high as 60%-40%. But if he gets in, Biden faces this reality: His chances of finishing third are greater than finishing first.”

But folks, that’s more of a campaign strategy for the likes of Rick Santorum and Rick Perry — rather than a sitting vice president. Bottom line: Sitting vice presidents don’t get to skip early nominating states.”
