This shows how far America has come since the sixties. The Harvard-educated-black-guy is the one being portrayed as elitist.
Damn right too: and so he should be. Someone has got to have high standards.

Hang on a minute, actions not words. Neither Hillary nor McCain protested too much about the exporting of Jobs to Mexico....or China for that matter.

I'm sure Obama is an upper-class elitist: as are both McCain and Hillary. They just don't admit it as much, and don't care about their records in these matters.

By the sounds of it America will get the government it deserves, though who will be McCain's VP, and pick up the reins after his coronary, I don't know. Jeb Bush, anyone?

Obama will probably take the opportunity to turn this gaffe into a conversation with the rest of America, one that it probably needs to have. As such, his popularity will either remain the same or it'll rise.
