"...On paper at least, Mr. Biden would still be a long shot to defeat the Clinton machine.
Which leads us to wonder what Mr. Biden and Mr. Obama know about Mrs. Clinton’s mishandling of classified information on her personal email server while running the State Department.
The FBI is now investigating, and it’s hard to believe the White House wouldn’t have some inkling about the seriousness of that probe.The FBI pressed investigations that forced two CIA directors, David Petraeus and John Deutch, into pleading guilty to misdemeanors for lesser violations than Mrs. Clinton appears to have committed.
FBI Director James Comey and Attorney General Loretta Lynch would be hard-pressed to block an FBI recommendation that sought a misdemeanor plea bargain if it were rooted in solid evidence and consistent enforcement under the law.
Such a plea would be devastating to Mrs. Clinton’s credibility even if it didn’t end her campaign.
All of which is to say that the possibility of a third Joe Biden candidacy is looking more appealing than we ever imagined."
