Smarter in a vastly more cynical manner, I agree. McCain needs to connect the two concepts - the elite tell us in minute detail how to lead our lives as they ignore or remove constraints on their own actions. And after they’ve made their coin and the economy is going down the tubes, they stick working stiffs with the tab. THAT should be McCain’s take on the economy - vote for Obama and the Dems, and we’ll just do this again soon.
Dumb it down! it worked on your supporters and followers!
