Max Baucus, Drunk?

UPDATED below.
Several conservative blogs have posted this video of Max Baucus debating health care reform, claiming that Baucus is drunk. What do you think? As for me, he does sound drunk at times, but at times he doesn’t. I can’t say I’m familiar enough with his speaking style to know what is “normal” for him (or not).
UPDATE: Here’s more on “The ‘Drunk’ Smear.“

Do your homework. This originated on Think Progress, who last I checked was not conservative.

I think you’re the one who needs to do some homework. Think Progress didn’t put it up to smear Baucus as being drunk — which is what conservatives are doing. Think Progress put it up here http://wonkroom.thinkprogress.org/2009/12/22/baucus-angrily-accuses/ with this this title: Baucus Shouts Down Wicker: ‘Your Leadership Pressured Them, Pressured Them, Pressured Them Not To Work Together.’
I made that clear — or tried to — by posting the link in the UPDATE.
