I'll concede it was pretty brave of him to take part in a debate where he must have known his side had no arguments whatsoever. And he dealt with this handicap very professionally by indulging in lots of what actors call 'business' - making exaggerated play of his advanced years and supposed decrepitude, milking whatever laughs he could muster, jabbing here and there with his sneaky ad homs, not actually saying anything of import but doing so with a great deal of authority. I wonder if he has had thespian training? - author
