How many senile people can speak coherently for two hours straight without a break? Pretty sure that number is zero.

Joe Biden is as strong as he is because he has overcome so many obstacles in life. And this has also kept him mentally sharp.

Trump was never anybody's idea of a world-class intellect. And after decades of overindulgence and no thinking, any brain he may ever have had has been reduced to mush.

What’s the rest of the story?

And what suddenly prompted her to post this “as a lifelong Democrat”?

12. Maybe give her time? Keep her on a string so you can schmooze her

for her vote later?

A lot of those who were parroting vague Hillary character assassination-lite, like "I just can't trust her" actually did vote for her, and some of those who didn't and even still embrace lies as justification later voted for Biden.

If she tests you with hints at more heavy-duty Kool-Aid, Biden's corrupt, in league with billionaire capitalists to betray us, actually dead, etc, my guess is she's not coming back -- if she ever really was. After all, a lot of people are exposing things about themselves they once kept hidden.

Distressing to realize a friend isn't so much, but if her 1 vote is "lost" to the Republicans the count ends up effectively +2 for them, and if not cast at all -1 from ours.

Call to serve!
