CT Senate Candidate (R) compare running for Senate to fighting the Nazis


http://politicalwire.com/archives/2009/10/05/bonus_quote_of_the_day.html

"I'm interrupting my career. It's not like I want my new career in politics. But I'm willing to interrupt it the same way that somebody interrupted their career and joined World War II and went off to fight the Nazis. I don't think that I'm that heroic, and I don't think I'm risking as much as a soldier. But it's the same principle."

-- Peter Schiff (R), in an interview with the Washington Post, on his U.S. Senate campaign in Connecticut.

3. Eww, and my parents want to vote for him. My mom once worked for his Dad.
The whole family is nuts in my opinion...and my parents are conservatives (sigh).
