What will this country look like when he takes ALL of the top 5% income?
Start to think people
Until the idiot Illinois republicans put up the nutbag opponent against him in 2006, Obama was a Chicago dem party hack that no one knew of outside city hall and his district. PRESIDENT???? not hardly.

As I already said - the number is about 85%. McCain will also offer tax cuts: they will be significant for people who make over 250K, and marginal or non-existent for those that make under. Both candidates will pay for it the same way - by raising the national debt (which has already doubled in the last 8 years).
If I tried to run my finances the way Bush has done, or the way Obama and McCain want to do i would have been sent to debtors prison a long time ago.

As you said - think people - but don't just look at Obamas plans and say they stink - McCains plans are not always the smartest either.
