- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - In case the media has not shown you, Barack Obama is on the front lines of the flood, helping residents clean up and start over. Working, not just a photo op. On the ground, not just a fly-over. What is this? A President-to-be that actually gets down and dirty with a rescue effort? And, not only a President-to-be, but an "elite" President-to-be at that! Of all the mischaracterizations heaped upon the Obamas, none has seemed more ridiculous than the charge that they were "elite." This son of single mother who was on food stamps for a while, this community organizer who was able to pay off his college loans only because of his best-selling book...he is called elite. But, John McCain, the son and grandson of Admirals, who played around in college like the son of the privileged and who later dumped his injured wife for a glamorous heiress....he is the common man? Apparently, in the same way that "all hat, no cattle" George W. Bush was sold to the country as a rancher. John McCain's campaign is full-to-the-last-drop with DC lobbyists and establishment figures. So much so that they cannot get out of one another's way as they exit, stage-right, when their conflicts-of- interest are revealed. And, yet, they call the Obamas elite. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- Ed Leafe Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message (including any attached or embedded documents) is intended for the exclusive and confidential use of the individual or entity to which this message is addressed, and unless otherwise expressly indicated, is confidential and privileged information of Rackspace.
