I think too many critics take their "marching orders" from the Huffington Post. But Arianna has never been a big fan of Obama. She wasn't even sure she was going to vote for him during the election. It is not always a good source to get editorial information. She is more of an opportunist than anything else.

If you want to know who is winning this debate, just look at what is going on. The GOP is in shambles. The Dems are unified and holding tight. The grin you have been seeing on Joe Biden's face all day is real!
