    No argument on Biden showing his age relative to Sanders and Trump. I think they'll sell it as 'he's human' and therefore trustworthy. A lot of people I know don't want the President and their drama, tweets, etc to be such a constant presence in their lives. We'll see if 'a return to normal' is enough to get people to the ballots.

    In any case I'm greatly relieved to see Sanders fade away.

    Fixed that for you.

    Yeah, I know. Trump is an amazing debater.

    not sure that's gonna work. he's human and dying. i can trust an old person who's losing their mind, but i'm not about to trust them with any responsibility.

    we'll see. maybe you'll be right, but i think it could get very, very ugly, very quickly

    This. He would likely fail a college-level debate class, but in our current political climate he's pretty darn good. Hillary was one of the most seasoned political operators to run for office in a long time and he tore her to pieces in those settings. He did that without any kind of record to run on. He'll have 3+ years of pretty positive data on his side this time around. I think he'll push uncle joe to his breaking point...

    I was shocked to read that anyone thinks that Trump is a good debater, and that he "tore her (Hillary) to pieces". Must have been a different set of debates than the ones I saw. And I guess Xville must be one of those "alternative facts-science deniers" Trump supporters.

    No I just think the phrase scientific poll is hilarious. Not really a trump supporter, not a hater either. The two we are going to have to choose from is yet again awful. Senile man number one or senile man number two. Great. I guess it's better than whackadoodle sanders
