We all age. So certain allowances must be made for the passage of time.
But check out these two videos filmed about five years apart of Governor Mark Dayton being interviewed for TV.
The first video (click here) is from a May 26, 2009, TV interview. Dayton's remarks begin in earnest at the 1:14 mark. The interview was conducted near the beginning of Dayton's campaign for governor.
The second video (click here) is from May 14, 2014, where Dayton is being interviewed in conjunction with Hmong-American day at the capitol. The Governor begins speaking at the 1:46 mark and the interview runs a little over 4 minutes.
Putting aside the differences in the settings--one is a sit-down, indoor interview and the other a stand-up, outdoor interview--pay attention to the quality of his speaking voice. The second, more recent, video is almost unwatchable as Dayton slurs and stumbles his way through a simple Q&A session.
Draw your own conclusions.
