RHYMES WITH "RICH"

Clinton is sounding more and more like a wingnut. First, she refuses to consider the opinions of economists on her stupid proposal to cut the gas tax and then she drops a wingnut meme on them: they're elitists. I'm going to troll on over to some Hillary sites and see what they think about this nonsense.

Clinton raised questions about Obama's ability to connect with working-class Americans while dismissing economists who have said her plan to suspend gas taxes over the summer would do little good.

"I'm not going to put my lot in with economists," Clinton said when asked to name an economist who backed her proposal.

"We've got to get out of this mind-set where somehow elite opinion is always on the side of doing things that really disadvantage the vast majority of Americans," said Clinton, a former first lady who would be the first woman president.
