Before Pulling the Lever ....

Taxes ... Whether Democrat or a Republican you will find these statistics enlightening and amazing.

Taxes under Clinton 1999 :::: Taxes under Bush 2008
Single making 30K - tax $8,400 :::: tax $4,500
Single making 50K - tax $14,000 :::: tax $12,500
Single making 75K - tax $23,250 :::: tax $18,750
Married making 60K - tax $16,800 :::: tax $9,000
Married making 75K - tax $21,000 :::: tax $18,750
Married making 125K - tax $38,750 :::: tax $31,250

It is amazing how many people that fall into the categories above think Bush is screwing them and Bill Clinton was the greatest President ever. If Obama or Hillary are elected, they both say they will repeal the Bush tax cuts and a good portion of the people that fall into the categories above can't wait for it to happen. This is like the movie "The Sting" with Paul Newman; you scam somebody out of some money and they don't even know what happened.
