prepared and knows the issues very well. so i think to the degree she can get past the scandal and show what is her greatest strength, she would be a capable president because she's a well-informed person. it may help to get her beyond a tough patch. >> gloria, i hear people talking about this debate as a chance to reintroduce herself. we've heard that time and time and time again as hillary clinton as a candidate. >> it's hard when you've been in politics for 30 years to reintroduce yourself yet again to the american public but her staff likes to say she's the most famous person you don't know and what she's got to do is remind people why they are or should be excited about her candidacy. because when you want to support someone, you want to be excited about them. you don't want to hold your nose and vote for them and she has, as peter points out, had a terrible summer so again, another opportunity to press the reset button one more time. >> paul, you had some thoughts.
