I am a big fan of boxing, and sometimes in boxing a young fighter needs a tough fight or even a loss to grow in the sport. They need to face adversity, they need to taste the canvas, and they need to get up, shake it off and fight again. From this they can--if they have the right aptitude, the right intelligence--learn what it takes to compete and win at a championship level.
Could this not be similar to the situation tonight? Could it be that this high level adversity--and I say high level because he has faced adversity in his life, we know--could this high level adversity be a net positive for Obama and his campaign?
