JIan and Rob not so different under the hubris hood.
I guess hubris is hubris, whether your are an uneducated and right wing narcissist like Rob Ford, or a very educated and left wing narcissist like Ghomeshi.
I am a big Q fan, but I can name three others off the top of my head that...
Robin Pilkey CPA with a heart (We Hope)
I was worried about what her politics would be, but her Bio doesn't look too bad:

I know what you mean. I get constant robo polls for two different ridings, my mother and sister do as well. I already voted, with my heart and for the candidate I think will be the best mayor, not the lesser of two evils.
Jamie Watt the Big C Conservative
I like the comment in this twitter posting in which someone says, "Watt probably went to tell Peter Mansbridge what the think." There was Tory strategist (the Party, not the man) this morning telling Metro Morning listeners what to think in oh so neutral tone...
