Here we go: Deval told Biden in a phone call last week that he was thinking about getting in at last-minute, per a Dem familiar.
Not a heads up that he’s in but telling him he’s thinking about it

A two-term Mass governor, Deval could pose a challenge to Warren w the southern NH voters who know them both from the Boston market. But he also may be a factor in S Carolina, where over half the primary electorate will be African-American.
Deval has personally been in touch w potential staffers, said he’s likely to do it but has kept some wiggle room.
Deval and his advisers had a meeting in Boston Sunday to map out potential campaign, per two Dems familiar.
Also: Deval has talked w Obama in the past about a run and was in Chicago late last month w the former prez for meeting of the Obama Foundation
