the unsolicited advice I've given friends running is: Take any issue and imagine what the opposition is going to say is why it shouldn't /wouldn't /couldn't work. Then see if they're right.
a friend of mine just got elected to city council for the first time. She said the thing she wished she had known was not to give an answer or make promises until you have more info than you need. She wanted to respond to city employees/constituents quickly, but said she was surprised by how am issue evolves with each person that becomes involved.
