(1,384 posts)I just don't think that hair on fire theatrics gets us anywhere. There is no shortage of people on this site proclaiming doom and gloom at the slightest hint of a tightening poll, it's counterproductive. Let's not use fear as a motivator, the other side does that. Let's instead understand that the race was always going to be tighter than those 10 point polls would suggest and get to work.
