Here’s the article: http://www.delawareonline.com/story/firststa=epolitics/2015/05/01/beau-biden-law-firm/26693351/

Former Delaware Attorney G=neral Beau Biden, who has said he is planning a run for governor in 2016, =s expanding his role at Grant & Eisenhofer, the Wilmington law firm he=joined in January.

A spokesman for Biden did not immediately respond to questions about whe=her Biden is still committed to a gubernatorial run next year, and how his=work at the law firm fits into those plans.

Grant & Eisenhofer said that Biden will exp=nd his work on behalf of whistleblowers represented by the firm. Stuart Gr=nt, a prominent Biden donor and political ally, is the firm's co-found=r and managing director.

"We're really excited for Beau to grow his work in the wh=stleblower group," Grant said by email. "It's a natural cont=nuation of what he did as attorney general, and is something he's alre=dy been working on since he joined the firm in January."

Grant said the new work "=doesn't change anything for him politically. He will make an excellent=governor."

yeah, this is what I suggested Stuart say: We’re really ex=ited for Beau to grow his work in the Whistle Blower group. It’s a n=tural continuation of what he did as AG, and is something he’s alrea=y been working on since he joined the firm in January. It doesn’t ch=nge anything for him politically - I think he’d make an excellent Go=ernor.

And=just as I send that previous email, here comes this to me. I see a few opt=ons:
1. No response. Starkey’s article then says some=hing about “no indication what this means for 2016, Biden campaign d=dn’t respond to inquiries.”

2. I respond,="Jon, the expanded role in the Whistle Blower group doesn’t cha=ge anything.” And then ignore his follow up.

3.=I see if he’ll go on background and see if he’ll say, “a=person close to the Biden campaign says…” and make the case t=at this is perfectly in line with what Beau did as AG, continuation of the=work, etc.

Thoughts?
