Good to know the source of the poll, which explains a lot. But whatever the poll or headline drama of the day, I continue to maintain this strangely (for me) serene confidence that Pete will win the nomination. What I keep coming back to: every time I hear him speak, whether in informal and formal interviews, speeches, or debates (well, the one we’ve had so far), I just see the next president of the United States. He is the Man of the Hour. Period.

Also: the polls mean very very little at this point anyway.
My current anti-anxiety medication is to abstain from all talking-head shows (especially those that focus solely on the horse race)and to pay minimal attention to polls. This daily regimen has done wonders for my nightly sleep!
