Is it better to be behind in the polls?

1. No, and this was Carville's analogy in '96

When Clinton had a very early 10 point lead over Dole. "It's like scoring the first 10 points of a basketball game. It don't mean nothing, but I'd always rather be ahead than behind."

2. If you are not the lead dog

the view never changes
