3. This is not the first time that Biden has said something like this.

I agree about Hillary.

From the start, I had strong reservations about her candidacy because of the general.

Too much baggage and Clinton fatigue

Too much Back to the Future

Too little enthusiasm among Democratic voters

Too much hatred from Republicans

Too much distrust, disbelief from Democrats, Republicans and indies

Not enough "like"

Etc.

I believe Harry Reid, Pelosi, Kennedy, Kerry and others chose wisely in 2008, when they backed Obama, either openly or behind the scenes. I think it's unfortunate that their 2008 decision somehow got reversed now. I suspect a deal struck in 2008 being the "somehow" but that's just me.
