Why would anyone middle class vote McCain, who clearly supports the plutocracy, while Obama supports the working class (unemployment, voters)

Because they have dreams. They want to follow the American Dream stemming from their hard work.



A vote for Obama means a vote for giving up on the American Dream through hard work.

The Obama people do not have dreams. They do not want to work hard. They just want to receive handouts from the government and they are completely satisfied with this.

Yesterday they announced that they will be closing the GM plant in Janesville, WI right before Christmas. That is the oldest GM plant still in operation in the U.S. It is 4 million square feet big. At one time this plant employed over 7000 people and was the life blood of the commuity. These are the working people who finally made it to the point that they believed themselves to be the "middle class." They made a decent living, had good benefits, owned their own houses, sent their kids to college. They had achieved the American Dream. And, having achieved it, they did a foolish thing. They voted against their own best interest and they lost it all. See, they listened to the republican rhetoric. They had good family values and they believed the republicans when they said they were the party of family values. They worked hard for their money and they believed the republican rhetoric that the democrats just wanted to take their hard earned money and give it all away to a bunch of lazy bums on welfare. They were loyal Americans and they believed the republican rhetoric that democrats were anti-American. They like their guns and hunting and they believed the republican rhetoric that the democrats would take their guns. So they voted republican. And they watched as the republicans gave tax breaks to companies shipping their jobs overseas. They watched while other countries put enormous tarrifs on American cars brought into their countries while our country made imports of other countries cars into our country easy as pie. And since those countries provided national health care while our country refused to do so, the insurance cost added to the cost of the cars and made them less competitive. They watched while the republicans gave all the tax breaks to the richest people in the world and pushed the tax burden over on the working people. And now they are facing Christmas without a job and no prospects of a family supporting job if things continue as they have. These same people who voted republican to keep others from getting food stamps are now signing up for food stamps themselves. This same story has been repeated all over America now. People who bought the republican rhetoric and voted against their best interest are waking up today to the old truism. "If you want to live like a republican you have to vote democratic."

Your hatred of Obama is really ridiculous and over-the-top. You don't know him personally, so to state that "he doesn't give a crap about anyone, except how they might serve his ambition" points only to a deranged hatred that has no basis in fact or reality.

Who is "they"? I am voting for Obama. I have a job, I work hard. I don't receive any handouts from the government. So who is "they"?

You don't have an American Dream. Your dream stops at where you are at.

Great post. Unfortunately, it will have no bearing on the McCain folks, since Obama is still black.

Did you see McCain's new "economic plan" or "health plan"? OMG: what claptrap. I find it amazing how Republicans are so mesmerized by rhetoric. This is why they fully accept Palin's assertion that she was found not guilty of any ethical misbehavior. Despite the clear findings of the investigation to the contrary. Up is down, right is left: Welcome to the Orwellian reality of the right wing. Oh, and of course, Obama is still black.
