The saving grace for Obama is unlike some past debate losses, there arent specific moments or themes that can be shown in quick clips to point at and laugh like Bush's frustrations in 2004, Gore's sighing in 2000, Bush looking at his watch in 1992. Nor were there any gaffes or good zingers. So his loss was more a general thing of him seeming to just not be aggressive or energetic or concise.
