Republicans concede Biden did not look mentally unfit

Republicans concede Biden did not look mentally unfit
by David M. Drucker, Senior Political Correspondent |
 | August 21, 2020 12:31 AM

Republicans panned Joe Biden’s speech accepting the Democratic nomination as thin on a governing agenda and thick on kitschy cliches. But quietly, GOP operatives conceded the spirited address packed a punch that undercuts President Trump’s argument that his opponent is in mental decline and unprepared to lead.

Biden, 77, capped off a four-day virtual convention with an impassioned speech from Wilmington, Delaware, imploring voters to choose light over darkness, hope over fear, and join him in a battle for the soul of America. Republicans took notice of the former vice president’s sharp delivery, acknowledging it rebuts Trump’s attack questioning the mental acuity of “Slow Joe” and charge that he is ill-equipped for the rigors of the White House.

“It was an energetic speech,” a Republican insider in Florida said. “Empathy, empathy, empathy.”

“He made it through fine,” a second Republican operative said.

Republicans should knock off commenting on Biden's mental acuity, people can tell for themselves and all criticism of him does is lower the bar for expectations.

I wonder how many takes it took to produce.  I don't, for one second, believe that was not canned ahead of time.

@Bigun

Me,either.

Nor will I believe he didn't read it off a teleprompter.

It certainly was on the teleprompter and, I suspect, edited. As for his actual mental acuity, Rudy Giuliani lets fly:

Joe was sharp as a tack and really took it to Trump.

Trump may not be able to recover from Joe's verbal tiramisu.

I don't think anybody expected anything but the best performance at TelePrompter reading.  We're between Conventions now, so this should be a high-water mark for Sloe Joe.  It'll be amusing if Biteme actually gets a dip in the ratings rat race instead of the usual bump. 

I'm sure Biteme's media polls will look glorious for the Sunday Shows.

I highly DOUBT, any republican,  said anything.  This is what MEDIA, does, to get us "mad" at our own people.  DON'T FALL FOR THEIR LIES.  NO REPUBLICAN NAME IS GIVEN.  Same as saying, 'some source said'.  LIARS.
