Our whining is caused from their own whining because they have been caught not doing their jobs! People are starting to get smart about the lack of their jobs they have done and damages they have cause! So I wouldn't call what we are doing whining but more like demanding....they are still whining!

Obama seems far more in touch with middle class, working class America than McCain. That's the background he came from; McCain didn't, coming as he did from well-heeled roots. Obama knows what to means to have to work hard and overcome barriers to rise above, in the face of prejudice, to boot. In addition, his career includes hands-on experience in running programs (some of them faith-based) to help working class people with job training and college education. McCain doesn't have anything to match in that department.

Joe, Obama never did a days work in his life. Everything was handed to him via one government program or another. I do not know of any, I repeat any programs he ran. He didn't know of any prejudice until he met his America hating wife who also had everything handed to her.

I did some research over the weekend into the backrounds of both Obama & McCain. Both have very limited experience in the private sector. Obama spent a little time as an attorney and he did run some agencies that focused on helping lower income types. Most likely with some sort of gov. funding. Oh, he has also wrote several books. The only mention of McCain working in the "real world" that I could find said he was a VP for his inlaws beer distribution company.

So much talk about upper class and middle class and so little insight in the the “class” that most impacts us all...the “elitist class” . This class is truly out of touch and it contains all life-long political pundits . Our “leaders” are immune to the affects of the decisions they make and in so are free to do things that do not work, and that have grave consequences but will not affect them in any way! Fact is that the “rich” being rich and the “poor” being poor has no effect on the middle class at all unless the government gets involved.

George Washington, Ben Franklin, and John Adams were all confronted with the same skepticism Obama is facing by the Loyalist of their day. Some Loyalist died of old age believing that it was a mistake in breaking with England. However, our forefather’s persevered to build the most powerful nation on the planet. They knew that the continued imperialist drag England was forcing upon the Colonies would enslave America forever. Today we are facing an imperialist regime under Bush- McCain that is certain to enslave America to corporate greed. A change is needed, and the time is now.
