Biden has to show up and show that he is not the doddering fool that the Republicans try and present him as. He can’t fail at that. But what about Trump? I don’t think the inflammatory mayhem and intimidation that works at his rallies works nearly as well when he’s on a debate stage, especially if the moderator is on the ball. He can probably deliver 2-minute non-answers to most questions, as is common with all politicians, but if he goes full grievance on any topic, it may not look good to any undecideds that are watching.
As someone who also misses blogging (even though my writing mind almost always forced me into turning my every blog post into a full-blown essay, slowing me down and making me a much less productive blogger than I might have been otherwise), I approve of this approach. But I'll keep reading you, whether you keep it up or not!
