The credit card companies' favorite senator
intends to run for president in 2008.
Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., said Sunday he intends to run for president in 2008.
But Biden, who also sought the nomination in 1988, said he would give himself until the end of this year to determine if he really can raise enough money and attract enough support.
Going after the nomination "is a real possibility," he said on CBS' Face the Nation.
"My intention, as I sit here now, is, as I've proceeded since last November as if I were going to run. I'm quite frankly going out, seeing whether I can gather the kind of support," Biden said.
He's got the inside track to president of MBNA. But of the United States? Well, there must a couple dozen credit card executives that would vote for him. And they've got money. Enough to keep Biden in the race? Only time will tell.
