    EMMETSBURG, Iowa — Former Vice President Joe Biden on Monday said he didn’t need Barack Obama’s endorsement in the Democratic primary, even if the field were down to three people. He also scoffed at the notion that Sen. Elizabeth Warren is building enthusiasm and accused Mayor Pete Buttigieg of stealing his plans.

    ...Biden reiterated that he asked Obama not to endorse him, and he stuck by that stance even when asked whether he’d want Obama’s backing if the field narrowed to three people. “No, because everyone knows I’m close with him,” Biden said. “I don’t need an Obama endorsement.”

    For a guy who constantly brings up Obama, its odd that Obama refused to endorse Biden.

    Its also bizarre to see Biden accuse Bootygig of "stealing his plans".

    Joe Biden was in the press this weekend for biting his wife's finger, and for being ignored at a small town Iowa restaurant.

    Former Presidents tend to wait until deep in the primaries before they pick sides and endorse. But if you pay attention, Obama may already be hinting in which direction he wants the faithful to tilt.

    I think Obama is hinting away from Biden.

    Perhaps- but I can see Biden whispering in Obama's ear at awkward times.

    Right, because it wouldn't save him anyways. Biden is toast, one way or the other. I hope he gets the nomination though. Quality entertainment it'd be.

    Well, Trump has dementia on top of his personality problems and lack of principles.

    Biden shouldn't run.

    He's an animal that runs on 4 hours of sleep daily.

    I've known a few people like that-they exist but are rare.

    The more Biden talks, the scarier a nutjob he looks to be.

    I hope he gets it as well. The Democrats deserve him. All 2 brain cells of him is all they deserve.

    Obama had NO INTENTION of Endorsing (until after the nomination was decided), so Biden is merely stating the OBVIOUS.

    Not really much of a "Story".

    Since, Obama had NO intention of endorsing anyone (during the Primary).

    Just another RW Nothingburger (of a "story").

    AJ, he didn't say he would get the endorsement in after the nomination-he specifically said he didn't need Obama's endorsement.
