Care to share? I have my mental notes, but actual quotes would be historically beneficial.
I've learned that when someone's behaviors are substantially out of alignment with logical, common sense actions - then 1) They're nuts, or 2) They have a hidden agenda. In McLame's case, I think it's 30% of #1 and 70% of #2 (give or take a few points).
I am somewhat hampered at present. I'm TDY (on a "remote") ex-CONUS, and the data is at home.
Indeed, we're not allowed to use the base's PCs for politics, so I'm stuck accessing blogs via my personal (i.e. I bought it) Palm LifeDrive.
Anyway, the data really comes from my Dad. He's on the highside of 90 and is an "unsavory old coot"(his words) who's been politically active since his 20s -- he takes Citizenship very seriously.
He's been collecting and organizing data about every national political figure my whole life (I'm over 60...), and I found GBs of it when we were taking over his affairs after a stroke. (nb: he's ok, but not yet able to return to tracking politics...).
When I get home I'll drop you a note via FR. I'm certain he won't mind sharing what he has.
