That has to be one of the less coherent criticisms I've read of a public figure. He's stupendously self-absorbed because..... why again? Because he stood on principle during the Lewinsky discussion? (And who are you to call it melodramatic or calculated? That's subjective judgement SU, not an argument you can hang anything). And then because.... he had the nerve and independence to go "against prevailing sentiment in his party?" That has to be one of the most feeble charges ever made against a public figure. For once an elected official doesn't take the easy route and cave to his constituency. For once an official doesn't calculate the best odds for re-election and you call it self-absorption?
Hilarious.
