Why is it that Dem spokespeople never address Obama's tax cut promises
correctly when asked about how he helps the working person? Saunders now on Hardball just switched the subject to everything being a question of culture when Tweety two-stepped with the R guy about how Rs/McCain are for the working stiff and Ds are elitists. Saunders should have laid out there that Obama would cut taxes for every lower income person there--payroll taxes.

1. Especially bad, when the FL Rethug said Obama will raise your taxes, if you make as little as $32K!

That wasn't the first time I heard that figure today. Where they get it, God only knows. I can only think it must have been Obama's voting against extending the Bush tax cuts, which don't expire until 2010.

Obama said today--unless you make over $250,000, he will not raise your income tax, your payroll tax, your capital gains tax or any other tax.
