Now that the Democratic race is back on, the attacks from both sides will no doubt intensify. Some have argued that Clinton is still in the race thanks in part to her salvo going into Tuesday's voting/caucasing, particularly those hollow points of experience and preparation.

In the interest of stretching this metaphor into absurdity, the Obama campaign just flipped out its Derringer and fired back, when it broke the record for fundraising in a single month, something that kinda happened last month and has been going on for some time. In fact, Obama seemed to first catch on as a serious contender through his fantastic fundraising efforts.

Who cares, besides the fact that this money could see him through to the end or serve as an argument for his popular grassroots support? In some ways, it demonstrates a certain level of experience, or at least managerial capability, which might be kind of nice after eight years of, well, you know. After all, wasn't this Romney's platform?

Whether and how Obama's money puts him over the top remains to be seen, but it still says more about him and his abilities as a leader than he has been given credit for so far--after all, the whole damned operation is run from a ping pong table.

This, along with his supposed ground advantage suggest that Obama will continue to surround himself with smart, capable lieutenants who will no doubt fill him in on any experiential gaps he might actually possess, the sort of Cabinet we saw with Clinton 1.0, and Bush 2.0 not so much. That Hillary (still) falls short in this department should be cause for concern. Because it's not just your aim, but also how many bullets you have and who will help shoot them.
