people who make under $250K will go in a big way for no tax on dividends, no tax on capital gains (stocks/mutual funds/bond appreciation), and no tax on interest. that is a point that a huge number of people will go for, and it definitely hits the middle class and under. those over 250K will continue to pay capital gains taxes. i think this is a great tax abatement idea that will appeal to lots of adult voters whether dems or republicans.

I think the "Great Center of American Politics" needs permission to do three things:

1. Officially get tired of The One (without being accused of racism)
2. Examine Mitt Romney to see if he looks like a President
3. Support Mitt Romney

The Obama campaign has been all about denying permission for these actions by constant class & race warfare and spending $200 million in negative ads on Mitt Romney. In fact the Obama campaign has been entirely centered on trashing Mitt Romney, to the exclusion of putting forward a plan for a second term.

The first debate went a long way towards all three points. The first and second point definitely (when The New Yorker Eastwooded Obama on its cover, that was a palpable paradigm shift) and we saw movement on number three. I don't think the 2nd debate did anything to derail the process.
