I think President Obama (with great help from Clinton, Kerry and Biden) reminded everyone he is the President of the United States and Commander-in-Chief, and that is not a liability but a strength. He was able to paint his opponents as inexperienced and having no clear plans of their own of how to move forward. I think that was crucial.
I am really looking forward to the debates because I think Obama and Biden can shred them. I don't know if all of that will win the election for Obama and Biden, but it will be very interesting to watch.
The stakes really are very high, and I don't understand how anyone could be undecided at this point with just stark differences between the two candidates and parties.
