Yes she probably does. I really like Bernie Sanders, but he is going to have a really hard staying relevant as the campaign unfolds if Joe enters the fray.
That being said, maybe it's time for me to volunteer for Bernie. His success will be a grassroots one if he makes it, which means his supporters are going to have to work hard to see him win.

I don't think for a second he'd take more votes from Sanders. Sanders is the anti-establishment candidates, Clinton is the establishment candidate. Also, Sanders has a stronger 'bond' with his voters. They are far less likely to peel away. As VP Biden would take the loose establishment votes from mainstream Democrats away from Clinton. Sanders would remain largely unaffected.

In a perfect world, people would have that level of complexity to their thought. In the world we actually live in, people mostly vote for people who look like them, and Joe Biden looks a lot like Bernie Sanders.
Yep. Not joking.
