Sometimes I wonder who's running McCain's campaign.
They've been hammering this "redistribution of wealth" argument for two weeks now and their poll numbers today are worse than they were when this all began. You think they'd realize this and fucking move to something that works.

2. I guess they didn't think we noticed that our wealth has already been redistributed...
To the top 2%! So, if you do the math, 98% of us want some of our fucking money back!!

8. Yep!
There are a lot more of us broke people who could use the extra than there are rich people afraid of losing it!

5. He's damned if he does...
And damned if he doesn't, at this point. He can either switch arguments again, and reinforce the "erratic" label, or he can stick with what he has now. It seems neither will help anymore.

6. please
were the NeoCons any good at strategy or tactics, we would not be in the mess we're in now. Of course they're screwing up - their idea of brilliance (ie: Rove) is slime, cheating, and more slime. This time people are sick of it.

12. By and large, I really admire wealth redistributors.
As wealth redistributors go, in fact, I hold Zorro and Robin Hood way up there.

Two class acts.

Maybe, just to irritate the fundie nutbags, we could add the Three Wise Men to the wealth redistributor roster.

The Republicans had this one wrong from the git-go.
