Debates of all ilk

Yes, I'll agree with Alex and GC. She didn't make as much of a fool of herself as she has in the very recent past. But to me, she only demonstrated that she can memorize passages and come up with twee phrases and redirects to substitute in when she doesn't know the answer of the question she's being asked. She was frequently timid and left Biden with the last word.

And, boy, he did an excellent job of saying it. I was very moved by his talk about family, I was very pleased with his firm stances - he was polite (didn't even correct her when she mispronounced the general's name) but he did not let up on the weaknesses in their arguments. It's a debate, and it often seemed one-sided because she refused to step outside of her rote answers to actually discuss.

And, yes. If you've only been doing this for 5 weeks, you're in no position to take this position.
