IMO debates are not won or lost on the night of the debate. They are won and lost in the days/ weeks after as the pundits talk. Frankly I seriously doubt any debate performance will alter the course of an election. Hasn’t really happened since Kennedy/Nixon.

Biden needs to offer a calm and temperate alternative to the shit gibbon he is facing.

for exactly what Biden is trying to do - be reasonable and speaking on the subject.

Biden is a different personality than Obama and can do a sucker punch quite well if he wants.

But this is about reaching an audience. As much as we’d like to see him throw a haymaker - that’s probably not going to attract the other voters that can make this election the complete and utter destruction of Trump.

Biden was praised in his debate against Paul Lyin' Ryan because he got "down with it" when needed. He wasn't all "political speak" and showed a "human side" and how to deal with a bully.
