Maybe it's just a personal thing, but I get so much grounding from Iceland because I know it's always going to be there.

I don't know if there's any secret recipe. Just a lot of hard work. Pay attention to your constituents. I always had a great Iowa staff that did all my great constituent service work. And I found that people would forgive me for a lot of my "liberal sins" because I paid attention to the home front.

There's just you, this moment, and a choice.
