With Hillary indited, is he gonna jump in?-----Biden regrets not running for president 'every day'

Biden regrets not running for president 'every day' | TheHill:
"Vice President Biden said Wednesday he regrets not running for president in 2016, but stressed it was ultimately the right call.
“I regret it every day but it was the right decision for my family and for me and I plan on staying deeply involved,” he said in an interview with Hartford, Conn., NBC affiliate WVIT.
It’s one of the first times Biden has publicly conveyed remorse about not jumping into the race to succeed President Obama.
Biden agonized over the decision for months during the late summer and early fall following the death of his son, Beau, from brain cancer.
But after road testing his campaign message and holding dozens of meetings with advisers and family members, he chose not to run, saying it was too late to mount a viable campaign. 
In a December interview with Bloomberg, the vice president said it “was the right decision,” saying he was still trying to cope with the death of his son, who passed away at 46 years of age.
“I believed I could win, but that's not enough. I know myself. And I know it takes time,” he said. "
