Former Senator Hank Brown Comments on His Former Colleague Joe Biden's Mental Fitness: "I will be surprised if he survives the primaries"

I assume he intended "survives the primaries" to mean "prevails in the primaries," but who knows. Biden is old and fading.

Brown: Senator Biden is a pleasant, outgoing individual. He was consistently one of the most liberal members of the U.S. Senate. To hear him described as a moderate could happen only in Washington, D.C.
Freeman: For an unrelated project, I have just screened six hours of campaign tape on Joe Biden. As you might expect, an original thought did not once interrupt the partisan boilerplate. But there was another problem, a problem not unknown to those of us of a certain age. The word Biden was looking for was, more than occasionally, hidden in the back of a closet. You've watched him for more than 30 years. Is he up to the job he's applied for?

Brown: I never observed in him the qualities of intellect, vision, exceptional integrity, or savvy that are required in an effective president. I will be surprised if he survives the primaries.
