Don't forget that Obama is also talking about a 7 million dollar per couple cutoff point.

Talk is cheap. I highly doubt that that the exemption will end up being $3.5M if Obama wins and the Dems have 60 or more senators. Under those circumstances it’s more likely, IMO, that the exemption will return to the $1M level is was at before the Bush cut.

If my estate was in excess of $7m it would not be a reason for me not to vote for him, as I don't really care what happens after I'm dead, but if I stood to inherit $10m, I would do everything I could to make sure McCain got elected ... why should I sacrifice 45% of $3,000,000 so that Obama can be President?

That is one hell of a sacrifice ... for what?
