You think that Harper would've said anything else if he were asked in 2003 whether he could beat the Liberals? Would Mulcair have a different reply today, or even Elizabeth May?

It's the way Trudeau is going about things. He has almost no substance at all, running 90% on his last name. So he invokes a famous phrase from his father and tosses in that he's going to beat Harper. Yes that's arrogance, and not a good kind either.
It's also extremely stupid because the more Justin drags up images of his Father, the more he is going to polarize and worse alienate voters that would rather toss themselves off a cliff than see Canada return to the days of PET.
