On Halperin’s 2-way today, he suggested Biden was “home free.” Another participant said not so fast–the press was pissed (having been used to cover up Biden’s problems and then, as a reward for their service, getting accused by Biden of being an evil “elite”) and they are… https://t.co/4qdMuBawOp https://t.co/eGTx2Rh9bi

Come to think of it suppose Biden had Parkinson’s and had disclosed it 18 months ago. Would any of his unusual behavior-including in the debate-be that disturbing? The argument that he can’t complete a paragraph cleanly but makes the big decisions right would have some appeal no?

The argument would of course be that while it may be entirely possible to be an effective President with Parkinson’s, it’s not OK to cover it up, especially if it involves lying.

The possible Parkinson’s Coverup is the most promising game-ender here, no? It offers a swift resolution devoutly to be wished by Democrats, especially. I’m surprised pundits are paying attention to anything else….

Another implication of Faster Politics thesis is that there’s way more time than you’d think for some sort of mini-primary to replace Biden, even if this proposal (https://t.co/qoGuSnvinf) seems a bit gimmicky (voting before convention but announcing winner on 3d day?) https://t.co/DsQ0dEcAZK

Maybe one implication of (Feiler’s) Faster Politics is we’re already forgetting how awful Biden was in the debate. Upshot if you’re Biden is *dont* do constant appearances, which will only remind us. Trump should maybe buy ads to make sure we don’t forget.
