Right on. This is precisely the intended connotation implied by the use of the word "presumptious". I'm no huge fan of Obama's, but am less a fan of McCain who has apparently abandoned all previous attempts at talking straight, or whatever it was he was doing during the last couple of decades in order to scrape the mud from the Keating scandal off of his expensive shoes. In 2000 I could have been convinced to vote for him but those days are long gone. If you believe, as the McCain campaign wants you to believe, that "sometimes a cigar is just a cigar", then you're just not paying attention. The choice of any word in a political ad is no accident. "Arrogant" just didn't hit the mark... it sounds too much like "elitist" which wanders a bit far from the subliminal drumbeat of fearmongering that is intended here. An elitist is someone who is well educated and successful, which is hardly the portrait that "presumptuous" paints. Being presumptuous means that you feel entitled to something. Which begs the question, just who is entitled to be president? According to McCain, the answer is elderly white political animals like himself. Everyone else is just too danged uppity. Hey, you black kids get off my lawn!!!!!
