The problem is that, right now, all of America believes that the Joe Biden we saw last night is an accurate reflection of how he is normally. If that's the case, we're in trouble.

Some people are saying that Biden has a cold or something. That might be (though it still doesn't reflect well on his cognitive function), but if that's true, Biden is going to prove it hard. He's going to need another extended public session showing how effective he really is. Otherwise, this debate is going to haunt him all the way up to the election.

Ok, let's be real here. What we saw last night probably was an accurate reflection of how he is normally without a teleprompter. The real reason we're all voting for him – and let's face it – is because he's not Trump. That is itself a very good reason for democrats and left leaning voting, but it's not a good enough reason for undecided voters, else they wouldn't still be undecided. And with how close this election is, it is those undecided voters who will decide the election.

Do actual policies and governing not matter to anyone? We don't have to guess at what kind of president Biden would be, from snippets of rallies and speechs. He's already been doing the job for four years. 

I'm voting for Biden because he has run the government effectively and instituted policies that help people and protect our rights. Maybe he achieves that by delegating decisions to younger folks, I don't know. But as long as it works, it's not an issue.
