9. My heart goes one way and my head goes another.

I speak: 1. as someone who bows to nobody in terms of my respect and admiration for Joe Biden; 2 as a health care professional with some expertise in medicine of the elderly.
And I have been here for a long time: I am no concern troll -- I know the species and I abhor them.
I greatly fear that what we saw a few nights ago were the early signs of cognitive failure. This resonates with other straws in the wind. Disturbingly a feature of this lack of insight. And also a tendency to progress.
Much is made of his NC recovery: there is a difference between following an autocue and answering questions on the hoof.
Trump *must* be stopped. That is the bottom line.
And this was much more than a bad debate on JB's part. Much is made of Obama's poor performance in his first joust with Romney. That had much to do with poor preparation and other factors; and nothing to do with cognitive decline.
Maybe, before his legacy, and much else, is damaged someone should say to him: 'Joe you've done a great job. Perhaps it's time to move on.'
