You want to elect Hillary or Obama? Just get the American voter outraged at Wall Street thievery and over compensation for jackass executives who lose money but have the corporate board in the back pocket.
That’s how you elect a Democrat this November who will jack up capital gains and a host of other taxes. PLUS even more insidious Obama has come out demanding that income above $97500 have Social Security taxes levied on it. Right now it is capped at $95,000
That's right. Only jackasses get themselves appointed executives at Citi and Merrill.
Right now it is capped at $95,000
Where were you when it was capped at 80K?
As someone who knew rural Democrat (Bible and gun hugging xenophobes, ya know) backers of Joe McCarthy, working-class Goldwater conservatives, and working-class Reagan Democrats -- I must question that assumption.
Even in the days when Americans -- not like the Rats of today who have moved beyond being Americans -- ran the Democratic Party we working-class conservatives -- and nary a Republican Party member among us -- voted conservative especially on issues of communism.
Today it's radical Islam and the need to defend against it "over there." There are a host of domestic issues that move sane voters to vote conservative.
I do not believe that the average voter says, "If Wall Street does something disagreeable I am going to blame conservatives."
