Default Gluing Wood

I have to glue a cracked wooden door on a bathroom cabinet. The wood is very
dry. Is it a good idea to slightly dampen the wood with water before applying
carpenter's wood glue (not Gorilla Snot.) When I've glued dry wood in the past,
it seems that the wood sucks the water out of the glue, keeping it from flowing
smoothly.

Pointers welcome.
