There is a nice saying in Poland: `where two Poles, three political opinions`, giving away our national love to political discussions. This changes magically into a great, majestic [elephant in the room](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elephant_in_the_room) once the election silence kicks in.

Oh isn't it grand! And I mean it absolutely without irony -- it is grand and beautiful how in the name of our national sport (politics) we Poles are able and willing to withhold our national pleasure: discussions on our national sport.
