1. Deep breath, deep breath. Just seems more dangerous than then. From the Palin pan into the fire.

3. Polls are nothing more than one second snap shots of a question....

They become important when several of them are looked at over a period of time.

If you want to sweat every single day, go to Nate Silver's blog. It will help you breathe a bit easier. Also, there is nothing wrong with taking a healthy cautious approach as well.

As was said before...breathe.
