Clinton supporters: Note how fighting to a draw in Iowa and settling in for a fight in New Hampshire

is a cure for the "coronation" theme which was one of Clinton's greatest vulnerabilities.

Please see how this primary and the expanded schedule of debates is good for Clinton in the long run (and good for both "big D" and "little d" democrats).

Tonight's debate is Clinton's best opportunity of the whole campaign -- she's in a battleground primary fight where she is predicted to lose and so if she has an off night, she can say "I was so far down in the New Hampshire poll everyone already knew I could never have won that state," and if she wins, she can say "I'm the comeback kid in New Hampshire." This is a no lose event for Clinton.

Tonight is Clinton's spotlight dance: step away from the petty back and forth and embrace the policy debate tonight!

But this is a white state, so who knows which Hillary will be there.
