Elkhart After Obama
Filed Under Barack Obama | Leave a Comment
What happens after President Barack Obama visits your town to promote his stimulus package?
People in Elkhart, Indiana say their businesses aren’t out — they’re just down — and hope some of the stimulus money President Obama wants is sent their way. Despite being held up as an example of the American economy gone wrong when it comes to employment, Elkhart’s promoters say there’s no such thing as bad publicity.

Lake Michigan Is The New Kennebunkport
Filed Under Barack Obama, Lake Michigan | 1 Comment
Shore Magazine’s election wrap-up email arrived in my inbox with an interesting tid-bit of information that bodes well for Lake Michigan communities in Southwest Michigan and possibly Northwest Indiana, if the presidential power-brokers discover Beverly Shores.
Democrats have been weekending and vacationing in second homes—usually known as cottages—along Red Arrow Highway for generations. … We (blue Southwestern Michigan) have been promoted to Kennebunkport.
The magazine’s email even notes that there is a rumor that Barack and Michelle Obama spent some time on Lake Michigan’s shore this summer.

Joe Biden (D-MBNA)
Filed Under Barack Obama, Election 2008, Joe Biden | Leave a Comment
Spotted on a Democratic message board “Why we call him Joe Biden (D-MBNA).”
If Joe Biden is elected VP tomorrow, maybe things won’t be so bad after all for certain segments of the business community.
After all, all of those rich people donating money to Barack Obama and Joe Biden aren’t doing so because they think they’re going to have their wealth confiscated and spread among the masses. After all, skilled politicians don’t bite the hands that feed their wealth and power.
It does mean that the Democratic voters who think they’re no longer going to have to pay credit card bills and mortgages if Barack Obama wins tomorrow are mistaken in their beliefs.
(Disclaimer — I have a financial interest in seeing MBNA and other credit card companies do well).

The bar keeps going lower and lower
Filed Under Barack Obama | 4 Comments
Did anyone else notice that Barack Obama’s tax plan has changed. The bar has moved from from $250,000 to $200,000? It was right in Barack Obama’s half-hour commercial last night.
Will it end up being lowered even more to take into account the need to pay for proposed programs?
While $200,000 is still an income most American households have yet to reach, it isn’t inconceivable that a family with a husband and wife working in construction or other highly paid union trades could make that amount, especially with a good year and some overtime.
