McCain 'Didn't Have Anything to Say About You'

By TChris

A great line today from Barack Obama, as he hones his argument that John McCain is out of touch with ordinary voters:

"Through 90 minutes of debate, John McCain had a lot to say about me, but he didn't have anything to say about you," Obama told a cheering crowd at the J. Douglas Galyon Depot in downtown Greensboro. "He didn't even say the words 'middle class.' He didn't even say the words 'working people.'"

Meanwhile, a Bloomberg/Los Angeles Times poll tells us that McCain is losing ground with older voters. That's unsurprising, given McCain's inability to arrive at a consistent position on social security or on the economic turmoil that threatens retirees who depend upon investment income to maintain a decent standard of living.
