Way back when Duncan Hunter was running for nomination as a Presidential candidate, Obama was making his debut as a candidate for the Illinois state legislature.

Both of these guys pop into my mind anytime someone raises the hubris issue ~ not because of their hubris, but that of their top end campaign aids.

Obviously Duncan and I differ very little on the issues, and Obama and I probably don't agree on any issues at all, but the campaign strategy behind these fellows was essentially identical AND equally repulsive.

Seriously, sitting here in Virginia there are few state office candidates who ever drew my attention yet Obama's people did ~ they had it that he was the second-coming of Zeus or something, and that we were all idiots if we didn't support him.

Been years since we've discussed Duncan's campaign strategists methods, but they were the same.

I didn't believe it about Obama, nor Hunter, nor any candidate or would-be candidate.
