The attack dogs were waiting to pounce on anything he did when his campaign starting getting its leg underneath itself. So instead he wowed them by letting it be about the magic of the campaign. Instead of Sanders being the front man, he played rhythm guitar for the message.
Clinton's variety of issues relating to ethics surfaced slowly, but surface they did, and without Sanders having to become part of the narrative.
Sanders was extremely careful to not overplay his incredible record, and now the period of excruciating examination of it has passed, and they can't call foul on anything he said.
It still will be a minefield, but now Sanders can take on Clinton's record, and he can talk about his life story, and his supporters are in place on social media, and he has more than a few honest commentators on his side. He'll now have a fair chance to be heard; a few months ago, definitely not so much.
His position in the hearts and minds of the public is on the rise. To poll Secretary Clinton's position in the public's regard is to explore uncharted depths.
