Commentators believe that 81-year-old Joe Biden's frozen moment during the debate may have lost him the presidency. But many people missed his 78-year-old rival's own apparent brain fade this week during an interview with Corey Lewandowski on Newsmax.

My guess is that by the time we get to next Wednesday, we'll be in a position where Biden is found to be trailing Trump by a significant, potentially irreversible margin in all swing states—and potentially some states that have not to-date been on the swing state list.
