Do you think McCain is out of touch with the financial struggles of the working class american?

Question

Please explain yourself...

Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

Totally. That's not all he's out of touch on, either.

Answer 3

Let me think for a mo- YES

Answer 4

Do you know anyone is Washington who really is in touch with the average American?

Average American makes 37k a year...I bet you are not average!  I see you picture!

LOL.

Answer 5

He can't even remember how many houses he has. He also thinks the middle class make a little less than $5 million a year. His wife is also a beer heiress w/ $100 million. Yes, he is.

Answer 6

Its the other way around. Obama wants to tax small business (which employs 85% of Americans) thereby preventing these business owners from paying higher wages and thus trickling down to the working class which struggles financially. You've got to stop listening to rhetoric and start looking at cause and effect. Think things through from A to Z dont just stop at B.

edit: McCain wants to provide tax cuts for small business which creates more capital, leading to more investment, to more jobs, to better wages, and so on.

Answer 7

ummm yeah

Answer 8

Anyone qualified to be President is going to be wealthy and accordingly out of touch with "normal" people.  

Answer 9

McCains father was an admiral in the navy so he lived an above average life as a child.  Now he is married to a woman worth somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 million.  He has 7 homes/condos.  Obama has become wealthy only in the last few years due to the sale of his book and  his wealth pales in comparision.  Yes I know he spent 5 years in a pow camp without anything.  That is not the same as a family struggling to put a  roof over their heads, feed their family, get school clothes and supplies for their kids, and put gas in an old car so they can make it to work.  Every day brings another bill with an announcement that something else is going up.  Everything that is but their salary.  I think many in the govt. are out of touch with working class americans because it is very difficult to get elected without money and or rich friends.

Answer 10

Of course -- anyone with multiple houses is.

Answer 11

no but Barack is, he is always vacationing in Hawaii and sends his kids to an elite private school

Answer 12

Uh, look at all of politics.  See any struggling Americans amongst those who run the country?  I don't think it's just McCain who's out of touch.  

Answer 13

YES, anyone who doesn't know how many houses they have is obviously, "out of touch".  I think McCain is a weathly elitist, who hears about the struggling working class but has know idea what it is like to be one of us.

Answer 14

Not as much as Obama/Biden are...

Answer 15

No more than other politicians in Washington.  We need a change and as "We the people" we have the power to do just that.  The only problem when we fire Congress, they continue to draw their pay checks, which they voted for themselves.  Why have we let this happen to us.  We need "fresh blood" in the House & Senate.  I intend to vote against all sitting congressmen & representative for my state.
