That last bit at the end will supposedly haunt McCain... Which makes their headline a complete joke.

The comment about $5Million was so far into the answer that it seemed like a footnote. If this is the only thing the left has to talk about, they really better crank up the propoganda machine to repeat the lie at every opportunity.

And hope that independent voters don't see the actual answer in context on YouTube. That could turn into an inconvenient truth for Obama.

And when did "rich" become measured only by current year taxable income? When even a preacher can't tell the difference, there is much too much emphasis on government policies and tax code in this country.

“”The point is we want to keep people’s taxes low. ... I don’t want to raise anybody’s taxes.””

Sounds clear to me, Mac doesn’t want to raise taxes and he has said numerous times if he’s elected he won’t, while Obambi has made it clear he will. Forget politico, they’re a bunch of former Wash Post and Time liberals, especially former Wash Post White House correspondent Mike Allen.

A few of the many things from last night that will haunt osama obama....

He said he has no idea ( in so many words ) when a baby becomes a baby. It was above his pay grade to even offer an opinion.

When ask what the most difficult decision he ever had to make.....
Osama Obama said it was whether or not to be against the Iraq war from the start. OK sports fans, he wasn't even in the Senate at the time, had nothing to vote on, and his opinion on the matter couldn't have possibly made one whit of difference to anything or anyone!

When asked about reaching across the isle and working with the other side.....

He mentioned working with McCain on a ethics reform bill. What the idiot forgot to mention was the the bill he worked with McCain on when it came time to vote he stabbed McCain in the back and voted the leftwing position which was 180 deg from what he and McCain worked out on the bill!

The abortionb part has already haunted Obama and will continue to do so. And well it should.

...above my pay grade.

So, in other words...he doesn't know.

And apparently, in a case where he doesn't know where life begins, instead of erring on the side of life, and being careful...he is willing, by his own admission then, to go forwards with the killing of millions of children based on his desire to gain power and cater to the feminists.

Disgusting, sickening excuse for morals that.

I don’t see how this could possibly haunt McCain. I think everyone in the country would agree that a net worth of $5 million would make one rich. I don’t see how the liberals could spin this to make McCain look bad really...

On the other hand, Obama saying that if you’re making 250,000 per year DOESN’T mean you’re on “easy street” really shows how out of touch he is (sorry, but if my families income increased from 50,000 to 250,000 I can’t even begin to tell you how “easy” life would be in comparison - heck, even an increase to 150,000 would take away a TREMENDOUS amount of stress! To the point I would consider my family “rich” in comparison to most people.).

Is 150,000 a year REALLY middle class? I suppose it depends on where you live as he said, but I don’t know any blue-collar, traditionally middle class families that make 150,000 per year even with both husband and wife working! IMHO, him saying that 250,000 a year isn’t “that much” is going to come back to bite him more than McCain’s answer.

The $5 million was a joke, and any idiot watching heard the entire thought, not the out of context portion that the Dems will use.

Obama will be reduced to rubble within the next few weeks.

The Rats would have to make a choppy edit in order to turn the "$5 million" into an ad, and what would be the point?

The REAL news of the night was an angry Obama calling folks who point out his repulsive vote on the "Born Alive" bill as "liars". Now THAT would make a fantastic ad.

$5MM net worth is a far more realistic definition of “rich” than $150K/year.

I thought the McCain quip was great . . . I'm betting that most of us who earn under Five Million a year were glad he didn't say something like $42,000. (That was Soetoro-Obama's truthful answer if he had answered the question, based on his plan for TAXING us.)

Again, Soetoro-Obama DANCED around the issue (and he cannot dance, I've seen the YouTube videos. Alfonso Ribeiro on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air dances better than Barry O' -- that's not racist it is my professional evaluation).

I think Barry O' likes to hear his own voice and this contributes to his inability to give straightforward answers to questions.

Surprising that, in this setting, no one questioned Obama about so-called “black liberation theology”.
