Had you same people questioned, scrutinized and gave such critical opposition to Bush when he stole the presidency twice, sent jobs overseas and created unecessary wars, not to mention 911, we would not be in this horrible economic condition today. I do not recall any previous presidential-elects treated with such disrespectful negative after-election commercials of "Will he keep his promises?". Then without shame went on to solicit negative comments from the public for emails listing their expetations of the new presidential elect Obama. Come on. this is transparent bigotry. Bush lied killing innocent people abroad and in the U.S. and you simply turned a blind eye. Your "concerns" are 8 years too damn late. Get over your damn racial prejudices and become a part of the solution not a part of the problem as you were with Bush, or shut the hell up.

"Obama's sliding tax scale" is a product of republican campaign spin. "No increase at $250,000" has always applied to couples; the figure for single filers has always been $150,000. Biden was referring to where the largest tax <em>cuts</em> should go, as was Richardson.

After having lived in NYC and Boston, don't I know it. WOW. Very expensive places to live for not great places to live. It is hard to really get that when you live elsewhere. Like where I live now, if someone made $120,000, yeah, they'd be thought of as doing okay - until you go 15 minutes from here and see the beach houses and the money it cost to build THOSE places. It's all relative, is the point... Thanks, Bud. After having lived in NYC and Boston, don’t I know it. WOW. Very expensive places to live for not great places to live.

You took exception to my mention of Fed taxes, and I'm just sayin' that states DO get money back. And many states have both local, state, and sales tax. Where I live, we have all three, plus fed, so I hear you. And I get that we shouldn't just be factoring in fed. taxes in terms of what people shell out, but since this is a PRESIDENTIAL race, federal tax is the only thing the prez/Congress controls. And since I was talking abt OBAMA, that was the point - his ever-changing base for taxation. I understand.

The last I heard it was less than fifty cents on the dollar. The road work being done here has been done by the state DOT and when we do get money from homeland security it makes a big spash in the news paper. Trust me, we do pay attention. The area where I live has many reasons to be concerned starting with the sub base. I did not say we got nothing, I said that we recieved very little back.

It seems like the Obama people are very vocal. But it seems like McCain supporters will vocalize at the polls. Keep the faith. Let’s hope McCain voters turn out in recornd numbers.

VERY powerful story... And thank you to both you and your husband for your service to this country. I hear ya. It is frustrating when we have worked HARD to get to where we are, and others seem to expect to have it handed to them. Sometime, I'll tell y'all a story abt a friend of mine... Anyway - thank you.

The sliding rule on the income bottom is one specific thing, but the more general picture that emerges is one of inconsistency and poor communication within the campaign. So what do we know about Obama? 1. Associates with shady characters = poor judgment 2. Inconsistent 3. No unified message And this is The Great Unifier? It's chaos - oh, wait! Chaos is what Alinsky advocated, but I don't think he meant it in this context. Thanks, Amy, for this post even though it breaks my heart to see that debate clip where Obama is yelling at Hillary.

This election is all about taxes and misguided economic plans on the part of the ultra-left. There are many middle-class families here in the San Francisco Bay Area that will be reclassified as being "rich" should Obama be elected. Especially in high tech mecca Silicon Valley where I grew up. Most voters there are socially liberal but moderately conservative when it comes to taxes and government spending, traits that I believe most Independents like myself can identify with. That said, I don't believe they know about Obama's redistribution of wealth plan that's in store for us. McCain should just forget about the so-called character issues and focus on last two days on one word: taxes, taxes, taxes....repeat that word and drill it into voters' consciousness.
