The latest round of synthetic outrage by the McCain and Clinton compaigns attempts to paint Barack Obama as an "elitist" for telling the truth - people who saw their jobs shipped overseas 25 years ago in the name of "free trade", "globalization" and similar economic platitudes ARE bitter - and with good reason.

The irony of Hillary "$109 million in 6 years" Clinton and John "I married a Beer Heiress" McCain claiming to be "in touch" with ordinary people is rich.  Obama is the child of a single mom who grew up with very little.  If anyone knows the plight of ordinary people, its Barack Obama.
