Former Vice President Joe Biden has contacted at least five senators so far this year to check in with former colleagues on Capitol Hill as he finalizes his decision on a 2020 bid, Politico reported.
Among those he’s reached out to: Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Sen. Doug Jones (D-AL), both of whom have publicly encouraged him to run. Biden is reportedly looking for some input from Democratic lawmakers on his chances if he runs, the best timing for throwing his hat in the ring and what the already crowded Democratic primary could mean for his bid.
I would say that his chances of winning the nomination are as good as anyone who is already in the race. I hope he gets in.
He’s also been in touch with a doctor who claims to be able to take 20-30 years off your age with just three treatments.
“Among those he’s reached out to: Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Sen. Doug Jones (D-AL), both of whom have encouraged him to run publicly.”
Are there others encouraging him to run privately? I hope not, because that would be a sucky strategy.
Every person with the last name Bank.
(After all, corporations are people, my friend…)
Why not reach out to the people instead of these out of touch senators. Of course they would want one of ‘their own’ to run.
