It isn't aimed at us.  It aimed at the independent who voted for Obama.  It is combating the standard, 30 year old bullshit that the conservatives are going after granny.  Obama is claiming that the cons will end Medicare as we know it.  The republicans are pointing out that in recent memory Obama is the only politician to remove money from medicare despite the scare tactics of the dems.

I see your point.  It's all about getting votes and fear mongering is indeed an effective tool.  I'd just like to the see conservatives put more time into teaching free market principals because that is a useful lesson with a wide range of applications.

Yeah, but if they did that, they wouldn't be in a privileged 1% class anymore. They can't have that. ;)
