If you do have to look at polls, you should do it no more than once every few days, to get a general sense of the state of the race.

There are plenty of team players in government who do whatever the leader says. There are too few difficult members, who have complicated minds, unusual perspectives, the toughness to withstand the party-line barrages and a practical interest in producing results Picture Quote #1
