Here is a Washington Times

Here is a Washington Times headline that we hope is right: “Class Warfare Said Not to be Working for Democrats.” The Times quotes James Zogby, himself a Democrat, if I’m not mistaken, as follows:
“The Democrats are dead wrong about class warfare. Remember, 66 percent of likely voters in a general election are investors. They have a vested interest in making sure that the stock market is sound and corporations healthy.”
The poll data on this are interesting. When asked, a great many people say that the Bush tax cuts favor the rich. But I think that many people, when they say in a poll that something is “true,” mostly mean that it sounds familiar. Thus, when asked whether the tax cuts favor the rich, they say Yes, because that’s what they keep hearing. But other data suggest that relatively few people care much.
