#1 The only part of the debate I watched was the last one or two minutes. Can't stand to watch Joe. Then Melania sashay across the stage in front of Joe like a runway model over to her Don. I thought Joe was gonna crawl over the podium to sniff Melania's hair but Ms BiteMe wisely raced over and threw herself into Joe's arms (to hinder Joe from losing control after Melania passed by him).

#2 But Joe did manage to break away from Ms BiteMe, walk over to the take moderator's face, breaking all social distancing rules by bending over and getting right in her face to, I am sure, say a sweet nothing.

#3 Watched maybe 10 mins and got tired of seeing BIDEN and his BOTOX or Plastic Surgery job.
Doubt the comment? Simply pull Pre-2020 video / pictures and compare them with the Biden that emerged from the "basement"

Also noticed maybe a a twitch or tell. Frequently tugging on his Left arm shirt shelve cuff like to hide something or cover nervousness.

#4 actually had the first Hitler reference in a Prez debate

Biden: "We were friends with Hitler until he started invading Europe"

which is one of the most bizarre and false Hitler quotes I've heard from any politician

#5 Joe had some nice, shiny teeth, too, didn't he?

The debate last night (and moderator) was so much better than the abortion a few weeks ago with that slimy Chris Wallace.

#6 Ref #4: Hitler

Plugs is a moron and the identity polticks crowd that casts a vote for him are morons as well.

#7 Yeah that was weird and off.

I honestly do not think I have ever heard that before in my entire life, and I'm talking extensive debates with actual fevered 'libertarians' about how we deserved Pearl Harbor and yet at the same time is was a fake setup by Roosevelt.

#13 Okay, get those "projection" sledgehammers outta your bags... I know you got 'em. All together now: "WE were friends with Hitler until" etc. ["our" anthem here]

#16 Isn't Germany *in* Europe? Biden must be geographically challenged.

#17  Notice he licked his lips/teeth late into the debate...

Old musical theater trick: a thin swipe of petroleum jelly across the front teeth allows the actor to smile easily all through the show.

#19 I'm not the target audience for these things so it is difficult for me to gauge the effectiveness of either candidate. For instance, I can point and giggle when Biden is slurring before the end of the first quarter - that may not be a deal breaker for a soccer mom who has spent the last 7 months quarantined with box wine.

I had a feeling Buy'em was in trouble when he interjected himself into the conversation when everyone but him was ready for at least 30 seconds of line but he said two words...and crickets for like 5 seconds, "That was my answer." Not pulling the Children are Sooo Perceptive nonsense, young son was watching with wife and he said, "I hope Trump wins, because that other guy doesn't answer the questions." My True Blues have been suspiciously quiet today, with the few posts slurring who have not made up their minds yet.

All this, to me, points to a....how was it stated?...as shellacking.

Don't get cocky, don't job but sprint the final 100 yards, capitalize on the good finish.
