re: #850 Mattand

Probably. The GOP was supposedly dead in the water in ‘08, and we saw how that worked out.

BTW, Steve, in case you missed my 2nd response to your post about how you voted, wealthy people like yourself need to stop with the “Obama is picking on us poor rich people” nonsense.

It’s fostering that ridiculous, Fox News-based class warfare fantasy and it needs to stop it. The President doesn’t hate you because you’re successful.

The freaking stock market doesn’t believe it; why should anyone else?

I never felt the President hated me….In fact there are two things I am very careful about on my LGF posts…..I never make fun of names….so I always referred to Mr. Obama as President Obama and Mr. Romney as Mr. Romney. Second, I refuse to buy into the meme that one has to hate the other guy.
However, clearly as an election strategy and as a revenue source the President has indicated that those making more that $250k per year need to pay a higher percentage in taxes than they currently do. This is a bald fact. I don’t hate him for that I just simply disagree that this will be successful and it does have a personal impact on me.
