Redefining "Middle Class" - again

For the third time in 2 weeks reports are coming that Obama's plan to lower taxes is changing the threshold, again. First it was Joe the Plumber and $250,000, then Joe the Biden and $200,000, now it's Bill the Governor and $120,000.

The question to ask yourself: if you're a family of 4 and your joint income is $121,000 or more, do you feel wealthy? I thought not. A prominent spokesman for Obama, Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico, thinks you are, though - he thinks the Obama plan means you're above the middle class and should be subject to increased taxes.

With numbers changing so much in these last few days before the election, it's hard to hit a moving target, and hard to think that we'll get from Obama what he says we'll get. So it comes down not to facts, but to depending on what you choose believe.

But perhaps Obama's tagline is no longer "Change," but now is "Chance."

'What Obama wants to do is he is basically looking at $120,000 and under among those that are in the middle class, and there is a tax cut for those,' Richardson said in the interview, according to a clip posted on YouTube."
