Speculation based on quotes is speculation nonetheless.

Speaking of Carn Dum, I believe I made a mistake in that last post. What I meant under "never went to Angmar" was actually never confrontated the W-k in the North.
Why are we not told of any special helper? Only because of his guise? At least Elves could have pierced through it, Glorfindel may have realised who Gandalf was if he was wondering about in that time.

That is the problem I have with these ideas - there is no foundation, no hints of any Maiarian activity. And as much as Gandalf may have liked guises we do see that when it came down to battle he did not hide himself.
