Being able to run for president and Senate at the same time is dependent on state law. Biden did do that this time. The previous time was Joe Lieberman, who ran for the Senate in 2000 at the same time he ran for vice president. The outcome was somewhat different, of course, but Lieberman did win his Senate race handily.
