05/30/2007 | Never let a candidate talk too long, because the longer they talk, the greater the chance of a screw-up.
Experienced candidates know this and can often extricate themselves, but sometimes a firm touch on the elbow, with the words "We're late for ______, sir," is necessary.
And if you have to step on a reporters toes, or pull the plug on a camera, so be it. That's a last resort though.
