To an extent. His performance today was only possible after establishing the "relationship" in the first debate. He did a few things badly in the first debate but the key goal was to look reasonable and avoid "beating up" on the woman next to him. He succeeded in that. For round 2 he could engage. It was obvious he was holding back ammo in the first debate but he didn't do that today. The best part is that there's more ammo!
