I have to admit that during one interview when asked the question
"Finally, why do you think you are right for this job" (as a closer by 
the "bad cop") I replied "I don't think I am" which got raised eyebrows 
and made sure I no longer had any chance at the job .

FYI I knew by then it was not the right job for me and I don't think
they realised I no longer thought I would "fit".

OK stupid thing to say and too much honesty can be a bad thing but
it just seemed the perfect opportunity to "politely withdraw"

p.s.
  The boss did call later to ask why and I explained.
