Vice President Biden is headed to Florida, where he's sure to get a glimpse of his presidential prospects as he considers a late entry into the 2016 Democratic primaries.

Biden plans to appear at Miami Dade College and headline a private fundraiser for Senate Democrats on Wednesday as he mulls a potential challenge to Democratic front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton. Interest in a Biden bid has intensified in recent weeks as Clinton has struggled with what some Democrats consider a lackluster start to her campaign and scrutiny over her use of a private email account and server as President Barack Obama's secretary of state.

``There's a malaise inside the race right now with Clinton. People I know who are supporting her are not necessarily withdrawing, but are unenthusiastic,'' said Tony Bisagnano, an Iowa state senator who backed Biden's campaign in 2008 and wants him to run again.

But he cautioned: ``We're getting close to where it's going to be a tough race if he waits much longer.''

It be interesting to see if he does it. Though I do agree, it would be quite a tough election. Most democrats at this point are either totally behind Sanders with an okay for Clinton, or the majority behind Clinton with a liking for Sanders. I don't know how an extra candidate with a small following already would fit into the mix. Though it would be intriguing to find out what his views are. I imagine them to be somewhere in the middle of Bernie and Hillary.

Now that I think about it, he'd probably have a decent shot at winning presidency.
