McCain aide hits Obama comment
Jonathan Martin talks to McCain adviser Steve Schmidt, who sees an opening in Obama's comments on small-town Pennsylvania at a California fundraiser last weekend:
The McCain campaign, finding a gift in its lap, tees off on the eye-opening comments by Barack Obama from a fundraiser last week in San Francisco (of all places).

"It shows an elitism and condescension towards hardworking Americans that is nothing short of breathtaking," Schmidt said. "It is hard to imagine someone running for president who is more out of touch with average Americans."

anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their
frustrations. "
