Are You Ready For a Largely Boring Debate?

Pre Debate Reports A Large Viewership Likely

This debate should be different. Better? Perhaps but there will be differences. The debaters will not be able to talk over each other. The mics will be controlled much differently because, well, because you know what happened in the past Trump debates. Anyway, after the past, I would welcome a boring debate.

The format makes me think of the Kennedy Nixon Debates. The one mic at a time. The thought that this might actually seem somewhat more presidential. Okay, that may be a bit much but I can hope. Even with the mic sistuation controlled — I expect Trump will be caustic. Name calling, and running rampet with false statements. I would like to be plesantly surprised, however Mr. Trumps history suggests otherwise.

Things to watch for:

Trump has accused Biden of being deep in dementia. Will Biden present well? I don’t believe the dementia stuff for one minute. He maintains a very busy presidential schedule and I have seen not indication that he is slipping. He is on top of so many issues, constantly. But Trump and conerative Media outlets have made much of this that a fair amount of people question his cognation. This could put some of that to rest.
