Before he's even out of the starting gate, Former Vice President Biden has been facing a huge controversy about whether or not he was inappropriate in the way he touched others. So far, the polling ... if you look at what's happening in Iowa and New Hampshire ... is showing that's probably not his big problem. He remains number one ... the number one choice of Democratic voters, but there are some up-and-comers that could unseat him, and his problem could be that he's from the past rather than the future.
