		<description>Right...big news headline: Politician speaks &#039;truth&#039; to Voters, Gets Lambasted

Well, I AM a Pennsylvanian and have been to every corner of this state (also a PSU grad). I don&#039;t presume to speak for all PA&#039;ers but I with those I know, Obama &#039;nailed&#039; it EXACTLY. There IS bitterness, folks WILL cling to topics and traditions which impact them. What the heck did he say that got everyone all heated ? The MSM blew this one (way out of proportion), big time. Hillary, I felt, was condescending and patronizing in her response, and indeed, the contempt for &#039;ordinary people&#039; (as Neil Young would say) is palpable with her. If the MSM had been doing their job, they would have been reporting that most Americans are &#039;WAY (way!) past &#039;bitter&#039; at this point&#039;, and his comments would have shocked no one.

Indeed, Obama is the most &#039;in touch&#039; Pol we&#039;ve seen in many years.</description>

		<description>Out of touch? Who&#039;s out of touch? Clinton lies and exaggerates and distorts her experience to prove she has the common touch. What does that make us commoners - liars? Clinton was a fucking corporate lawyer for Wal-Mart, for chrissake - Wal-Mart, the company that refined the screwing of minimum wage employees to a high art. McCain is so out of touch he has to ask his staffers what his positions are, and if he didn&#039;t have Mark Salter putting words in his mouth and writing his books for him, he would be revealed daily as the ignorant, incompetent, grubby, bumbling little liar and panderer that he is. 

Obama, for whatever faults he may have, is the most authentic, honest, and whole person among the three of them.</description>
