Joe Biden’s prospective presidential candidacy is in danger of becoming a joke.
Peter Beinart, of course. Trust a member of the antiwar movement to write something like that… OK, so there was one comment.

PS: OK, two comments. While Joe Biden’s candidacy is, of course, already a joke – and, rest assured, he wants the job – it is a measure of just how much trouble the Democrats are in right now for 2016 that he and the other very-old-for-the-job person with public neurological issues (Hillary Clinton, for those following along at home) are the best choices that that party has. Although I suppose that Elizabeth Warren at least looks like a little better as a choice, seeing as she’d ‘only’ be 67 in 2016 and does not have blood clots or a family history of strokes.
…As far as I know. Anyway, joke or not Joe Biden still has a remarkably non-trivial shot at winning the nomination. Which would, as I have noted before, be absolutely great.
My nightmare is Rand Paul vs Hillary Clinton in 2016.
In 2016 the debt will be close to $20 trillion. Over half of those able to work will be receiving handouts from the government. The legislative tonnage that has spewed out of DC these past 6 years will cure, thus permanently crippling the US economy as we knew it. And ObamaCare. So, yeah, at this point, what difference does it make?
