Brian Lowry: “Although there was considerable debate Thursday night about Julia Louis-Dreyfus making jokes at Trump’s expense, watching Biden’s speech – in which he never mentioned the president by name – made clear that was a calculated move: Let someone else jab at Trump, while allowing Biden to be statesmanlike.”

“You can question the extent to which the material worked, but like everything else about this convention, it was thought about and planned. Either way, it was one of those stories with a shelf life of about two hours.”
