Jonathan Chait of "New York" magazine wrote the above entitled article today. It's definitely worth a read.
Here it is.

I happen to agree with him. This is the only thing that properly explains Mitt's lackluster debate performance last night. Immediately, the conservative trolls came out and said, "Mitt knows he's ahead and he wants to look presidential."
This is horse shit.
You only truly play prevent defense if you are ahead by 10. Anything else is a bluff.
The only other explanation is what Mr. Chait described. Act like you are 10 points ahead. This will hopefully depress turnout.
Let's get out there and put it to them.
GOTV.
