Who?

Unless Sanders might get a plurality in this case, and Sanders could in theory pull a Corbyn there...

Why would Biden want to spend the last years of his life on the campaign trail so Sanders would have a chance to win?

Are you asking who is Jim Webb or who is Ralph Nader?

Anyhow, I've made my point with that.

I know about the cranky old man who thought he was more important then he was.  Who's the other guy?

One of the people running for democratic presidential nomination that isn't Clinton or Sanders?

Again, point made.

And look at this coming up on my news feed, so shortly after more rumors about his run surfaced. Could this be Biden's Benghazi? CNN reports, and they are not being subtle about it. Other news outlets are going in the same general direction with what is essentially a non issue.

You gotta go with Trump. You only get one shot in life at having a President Trump, do you really want to miss that opportunity? I'll be sitting comfortably halfway around the world myself, though.

Scandals or deliberately dug up roadblocks like Benghazi.

Well, people can talk about how he drives his companies into ground while getting monies out of it. But for most Republicans, talking about these are going to massively backfire.

Besides, he looked like the candidate which caresses the teabaggers best.

Biden is...... NOT running for president, okay then.

He said that the 'window has closed', so, yeah.....

Time to see where those Biden votes are going to get shuffled to since those votes going for him are a pretty sizeable chunk of the electorate.

Although, looking at the polls from the last week (at least the ones with data asking if Biden doesn't run anyways), it looks like Clinton will gain an even bigger lead over Sanders with Sanders getting the remainder. So, his not running changes nothing and in fact, makes Clinton look even MORE inevitable.

Also, if Clinton is such a great debater, why limit to 6? Yes 28 is too much and that was gruelling for everybody, even the voters, so, why not half of that? Like 14 maybe, or 12 or 11 like the Republicans are doing?

I never said it did, just stating the facts as they are stated in the polls. But, as we all know, polls aren't neccesarily predictive, so, we shall see.
