Thought Provoking

Thought for the day:
This politician became well known because he successfully launched a campaign as an "outsider" while effectively pocketing Washington insider funds. His rhetoric was his strength, as he smoothly and sometimes movingly talked to his constituents about how he shared their passion for the same values that they held so dear. These voters, many who shared his ethnicity and heritage, and many who simply shared the ideals he espoused, were so taken in by this rhetoric, they either failed to check out his true voting record, or in the end, simply didn't care. Finally this "outsider" probably was successful for more than any other reason, because he was able to capitalize on the mistake of anothers' bungling of a very public issue. He was obsessed with the mistakes of his opposition, and effectively exploited them, even to the point of being able to avoid the spotlight on his own shortcomings and what would have been easy find flaws.
Clearly, I am talking about:

A. Barack Obama
B. Marco Rubio
C. It's just not clear.
