Maybe not for long - I remember reading that a big reason he walked back from the brink of his last "run for president" was that it would have required him to give up hosting The Apprentice (or forced NBC to give each of the other candidates their own prime time show, I guess). So if he's in "for real" this time, maybe he's gonna hand off hosting duties to one or another of his horrifying spawn?

Vice President Joe Biden has still not ruled out a 2016 presidential run and will make his intentions known by Aug. 1, according to two Democratic sources who have been in contact with his family. While the loss of his son, Beau Biden, last month paused any political planning by the vice president, the sources tell U.S. News that family members have indicated a White House run is still a possibility. He plans to announce his decision sometime prior to the beginning of August. Dick Harpootlian, former chairman of the South Carolina Democratic Party, says Biden previously indicated to him he would likely make up his mind in July.

He's been doing that for 27 years, and I still don't view him as more than a personable talking head on the MacNeil/Lehrer newshour.

I was thinking that surely it hurts Chafee to have crossed the floor but then Reagan switched allegiance too (earlier in his career). Also Rick Perry.
