I've learned, from having friends and family members with important jobs in big campaigns, to take everything with a grain of salt.

Exactly.
I have friends who work for big campaigns and I laugh at them because they are so passionate about the candidate. It sucks to be passionate about a
candidate because politics should be "business never personal." I don't foresee myself working for a big political campaign because 1) I hate politics and 2) I would hate the conflict between my loyalty to the person (and, I guess, the platform--right) and calling BULLISHT on certain things.
