What's really disturbing about the debate fiasco is there's no way to be confident that Biden has it in him to pull off the near-flawless execution he'll need to win at this point. At a minimum, the Bidens owe us a real conversation about that. My take: newrepublic.com/article/1832...

What Joe Biden Really Owes the Country Right Nownewrepublic.com There's no sugar-coating the debate, which was a disaster. At a minimum, he and Jill owe the country an honest conversation about whether he can still do this.

Kind of meta, but I think if you're gonna be part of a pundit class that's upset at skin-deep media coverage that refuses to focus on anything beyond aesthetics you should maybe focus on things beyond aesthetics. "We have to cover this debate like idiots because the media is stupid" says something.

We saw. We think you're on goofballs.

Gonna keep missing it.

Longtime admirer of your work here, suggesting you take a day at the beach or at least go for a walk.

We already saw...but apparently you should see this:

Biden doesn't owe you, or us, anything.

I’m shocked and not a little appalled at the mass freak out. The guy has been hauling his cookies all over the planet, so it’s no wonder he’s under the weather and tired. (THAT’S on his staff.) He had a bad night. If we see a pattern emerging, that’s something else. But, for now: we get a grip.

Did you happen to notice what tfg's SCOTUS did today? And you think a little over prepping for a debate, vocal weakness from a cold, and a crap debate set-up would make me want to vote for tfg?

No, I don't think that, and it's puzzling that you think I do.

"the Bidens owe us a real conversation about that."

Solid and thoughtful piece. And Biden swung back on several of those points in this clip from today's NC rally: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaaE...

Even if by some miracle Biden performs flawlessly from now on, we all know that there is still a fragile, partially senile, stiff and weak Biden that could emerge again at any minute. That's the Biden that the Trump campaign will show in its ads.

Meiselas’ response is way over the top, but… youtu.be/NNbpReScD_I?...

I wouldn’t say I “missed” it…

We need to rally. There is a lot at stake.
