Interesting idea, but it has a flaw. Harris’s approval numbers are worse than Biden’s. And, she’s a woman of color to boot. How about this? Harris bows out so that Biden can have a strong VP candidate able to take over when necessary. Folks wouldn’t trust Harris in that role. Biden ain’t gonna quit before the election, so there needs to be a good alternative VP in place.

Democrats will have to do what Republicans have done for years - suspend disbelief. Because Biden will not step down. His rally in N.C. today made that clear.

Wow! Could there have been a worse start for Biden at the debate? Hoarse, speaking too fast, forgetting what he was going to say. Painful to watch.

There are no undecided voters! Period! There are “double-haters,” sure, but they aren’t undecided. They won’t vote or they’ll write in Mickey Mouse or whatever. No minds will be changed by the debate tonight. Folks will watch for entertainment (double-haters) or see how their candidate won.

If the first question to Trump in tonight”s debate isn’t “Who won the 2020 presidential election?”, I will never watch CNN again.

Yeah, of course it’s the time zones. But what biggies originate on the West Coast? The Academy Awards? They start in the early evening, so we on the other side of the country will have it in prime time.(And it still runs too late.) I never watch sports events taking place in California - past my bedtime!

At times like this, I wish I lived in California. It really bugs me that TV networks always start big events at 9 p.m. Are West Coast viewers more important than East Coast viewers? Because you lost a big segment of the latter, who won’t even stay up to watch Monday Night Football!

Trump can stop campaigning! His people say he’s way ahead in all the polls (not hardly), so if he loses, the only answer is that the Democrats cheated! He’ll have millions of cultists believe this. And if Joe Biden, senile, faltering Joe, somehow does well in the debate, it’ll be because he got injected with a performance-enhancing drug.

Never before has a major presidential candidate used these big lies to win. But never before have there been millions of people who will believe them!

The price of butter was coming down. Now it’# up again. Did I miss news about a cow shortage?

I wish reporters would stop referring to criminals as, “the gentleman who . . .” They are not “gentlemen,” in any sense of the word! You don’t have to call them perps, mooks, or dirtbags. How about the simple “man”?

I don’t get it. Only now are schools considering banning cellphones from class? And that’s controversial? Teachers don’t allow reading comic books, playing tic tac toe, listening to music, etc. in class. Why would the constant distraction of cellphones be allowed? For communication during a school-shooter incident will likely be the reason in a parent lawsuit, and that has merit, but there’s gotta be a way to address this issue besides allowing free access to the internet during English class!

Justice Thomas thinks he’s found a way to prohibit gun laws, pointing out that only if there’s an historic precedent for such laws, they can’t be enacted. Well, he doesn’t know his history. Carrying guns was banned within the city limits across the Old West, most famously in Tombstone, Arizona, where the Earps were the enforcers of the city ordinance, which led to the incident at the OK Corral.

I’m sure Joe Biden won’t take my advice, but if he did, this is what I would advise him for his debate with Trump:

1, Practice making longer strides when you walk. It’s not that far to the podium. You can do it without shuffling.

2. Keep your finger off your nose, and don’t do those little coughs into your fist.

3.When Trump goes off on a rant, say, “Is this the man you want controlling our nuclear arsenal?”

4. Point out that Trump’s economic promises will actually make inflation worse.

RIP, Willy Mays.

One of my favorite baseball trivia questions: What do Willy Mays, Hank Aaron, and Babe Ruth have in common? They’re the only three major leaguers who have this in common. Hint: Tom Seaver was almost a fourth.

Sen. Schumer is on offense (finally), forcing the Republicans to cast votes on access to IVF and contraception. Sen. Thune objects, saying these are political “show” votes. He’s right! The purpose is to “show” how contrary to what the public wants Republican senators are!

Tonight, my wife and I went out to dinner. During the meal, the waitress came to check on us and asked how we were doing. My wife said we were talking about the D-Day commemoration we saw on TV earlier. The waitress looked confused. My wife said, “D-Day? June 6, 1944, Word War Two?” The waitress said, “I’m sorry, but I don’t know what that is.” She wasn’t a teenager or a bubblehead in her twenties, but a woman (she admitted) in her fifties.

How long ago did they stop teaching history in school?
