WASHINGTON — Mr. Biden's debate performance has set off alarm bells among top Democrats, leaving some to openly question whether Biden can stay atop the Democratic ticket.During the early minutes of the debate, Mr. Biden struggled to name Medicare when he was asked about the tax rate for wealthy Americans. 'I've never seen a freakout like this,' one House Democrat familiar with conversations among lawmakers said Thursday night, CBS News reported.

And what became very clear through the course of the night is that Joe Biden is fighting on behalf of the American people – on substance, on policy, on performance,' Harris said in an interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper.Pressed by Cooper on Mr. Biden's performance, Harris offered a defense of her boss.'People can debate on style points, but ultimately this election and who is the president of the United States has to be about substance.
