He still easily beat mitt romney. So i would guess that the Harris Campaign understands that as good as things went last night, the race is far from over. There is still time. The polling we have is within the margin of error in all of the key states. We have a modern Tutrition Dating back to kennedy. It hat matters, the biden debate determined the race. We like the idea of two people going back and forth.
