If Obama has been in the lower and middle class it would make sense that he knows what they want and need.

and how do you know Sarah Palin hasn't? She was one of four children and her mother was a school secretary and her father was a teacher. Now I don't know about where you are but teachers and secretaries aren't exactly raking in the dough and I can't imagine they were making MORE back then.

Plus with her 90% (give or take) approval rating in a State that isn't known for individual wealth ... perhaps listening to her people HAS given her an idea of what the middle class want or need.

It seems that just because she makes a good living now means that she doesn't understand the middle class.

I never said she wasn't. I've never made any claims regarding any persons. You said something about Person A and I gave a response on Person A. I was not aware that I, also, had to bring in something about Person B considering that the statement wasn't even about them. I was pointing something out. Just because I didn't jump up and shout "oh and by the way, so and so did this, has this, was there, etc" No need to get defensive twist words around. I wish that I could say something without being pinned to something or slapped with a label.

LOL what? You quoted my post which was intended to be about both parties so I assumed (and you know what they say about assuming) you were talking about both parties also. My point was that we know Obama didn't grow up rolling in dough but he makes a heck of a living now but no one questions that and they shouldn't. he has every right to be successful and NOT be condemned for it. But Palin also didn't grow up rolling in dough but she couldnt' POSSIBLY know about the plight of the middle class because she makes good money now... and she also has every right to be successful. That was the point of my post so I figured if you were responding to it that you meant that he knows about the lower middle class because he has been there and Sarah Palin hasn't.

Sorry if responding to your post meant I was slapping you with a label lol

You must have Chicago mixed up with Arizona. The team that lead for a while but faded in the stretch!

No, lol. Sorry, I should have just taken out what I wasn't referring to (I will edit my post to reflect such!

). Just cause I didn't make a comment about one doesn't mean I was implying something about them.

Palin must be a hard worker to live in Alaska!

I've had relatives live there and know it's not easy!

Not so much a label, lol, I just felt like I was being pinned to one side of the argument. All I was trying to do was make a casual observation!

*hand shake*

There are advantages, drawbacks, and all sorts of things to both, I am sure.

I know everyone says this, but, I hope that people can put aside their differences and focus on the issues at hand. If they are concerned about petty things and mudslinging, that is less attention devoted to more important issues.

Two women were on a plane and began a conversation.

They spoke of all the places that they had been and the subject of California came up.

The first woman said that she was from San Francisco, she then asked where in CA the 2nd woman had visited.

"San Jose", she answered, mispronouncing Jose. The first woman said, "Oh, you mean SAN HO-SAY! In California we pronounce the letter "J" like an "H"!

The second woman thought about it for a second and thanked her for correcting her pronounciation.

The first woman followed up by asking her during what time of the year she had been in San "HOSAY". The second woman hesitated and said, "In HUNE AND HULY!"
