my wife and I felt he was making too much dang money to feel too bad for the dude. if it’s 250 gross, all right, but i thought he had to be taking home 250k to be hurt by obama. anyone making over 250k, hard to feel too bad about a bit higher tax bill. on the other hand, it is fascinating how poorer people identify with wealthier people’s issues and vote against their own self-interest to be part of the richer crowd. Kind of irrational. I bet there’s research in this area, but joe the plumber is an odd hybrid. working class image, low wage, coupled with fairly successful business. hell,. most lawyers and doctors dont make 250k. i don’t think mccain scored any real points with that…
