joining us from cambridge, massachusetts, david gergen. there is a new launch of a web video.nt to show our viewers a little bit of the ad. >> there's always going to be bumps on the road to recovery. >> i'm an american, not a bump in the road. >> it has a feel of some of the reagan ads in the past. and the theme is believe in america. do you get a sense the voters don't have the same kind of optimism. do you think this is a message that will resonate with voters this go around? >> suzanne, i think the country is demoralized, and they would like to believe again. we saw that with the bin laden episode, that great adventure, which college students poured out of their dorm rooms and chanted usa, usa. and clearly there is an underneath disspirited public. there is a desire to come back and believe in america again. i think barack obama, frankly, touched on that on the yes we can theme four or three years ago, and romney is trying to revive it. and just a few weeks ago it doesn't seem much difference who was going to win, because barack obama seemed destined to go on to victory. b

joining us from cambridge, massachusetts with morning after insight. david gergen, nice to see you.bviously it was fascinating to see all of these candidate on stage to interviews themselves to the public. who do you think made the best presentation last night? >> i think there were three winner, suzanne. first of all and most importantly, mitt romney came in. he left as a front-runner, unscathed and well. being on the trail four years ago, it has really helped him p. he's a better candidate than he was then. second newt gingrich, very substantive, had the most substantive draft there. the surprise was michele bachmann, he's shown voters but not well known on the east coast. she was very pithy last night. had a lot of energy. i think a lot of people came away feeling, wow, she's a more serious candidate than you thought. we also wonder, why do you need sarah palin if you already have michelle bauschman in the race. >> i wanted to ask you, does that make it less likely that sarah palin jumped in the ace that she's a kingmaker this go-around? >> i never thought she would get in. i thi
