Check that. Some sects (such as Qumran) did expect a "suffering servant" instead of a Davidic conqueror. The best book I've read on the matter is "The Messiah Before Jesus" http://www.amazon.com/The-Messiah-before-Jesus-Suffering/dp/0520234006
Actually, this is one my favorite ways to show that Jesus wasn't unique, because many Christians think he was some revolutionary figure of peace. Indeed, there were others before him who preached the same. Most of the gospel teachings that are so "revolutionary" are only so because they differ from the OT canonized text, and in reality they're pretty much copying and pasting the best-of rabbinic commentary and ideas from the last thousand years. If you can get a Christian to accept this, your job is done.
