Obama spanks McCain and the GOP

Obama, at the Associated Press annual meeting:

Now, Senator McCain and the Republicans in Washington are already looking ahead to the fall and have decided that they plan on using these comments to argue that I’m out of touch with what’s going on in the lives of working Americans. I don’t blame them for this -- that’s the nature of our political culture, and if I had to carry the banner for eight years of George Bush’s failures, I’d be looking for something else to talk about too.

But I will say this. If John McCain wants to turn this election into a contest about which party is out of touch with the struggles and the hopes of working America, that’s a debate I’m happy to have. In fact, I think that’s a debate we need to have. Because I believe that the real insult to the millions of hard-working Americans out there would be a continuation of the economic agenda that has dominated Washington for far too long.

1. EXCELLENT start! This is the angle he needs to push ...

When they have nothing else to throw at him, out comes the
"liberal elite" taunt ... Let's talk about what REAL elitism is,
and who's guilty of it.
