...Maverick vs. the Cool One Joe Klein's piece on Obama's skills in crisis management shows how blind he is [Oct. 13]. McCain is angry at what the Democrats and the Wall Street executives have done to deceive the American people. I pray that the American people will listen to McCain's anger and endorse what he will do as President: freeze spending and cut pork-barrel and other unnecessary spending. These steps are essential for the American people. John Talerico, Middletown...
...Candidates Onstage Joe Klein would like Obama to tell the truth to the American people regarding the sacrifices they will need to make during this economic free fall [Oct. 20]. But it is clear that such truth-telling is not what the American people want to hear, nor does such directness help the candidate during an election campaign. In August, in the midst of the oil-price surge, Obama tried to suggest to Americans that maintaining inflated tires could conserve fuel.

Candidates rarely do that. But Joe is in a class by himself...
...Joe the Plumber: The point I was making was twofold. Number one, I want to give you a tax cut sooner so you can save sooner to start your business sooner, because the average plumber starting off sure isn't making $250,000 a year. And the second thing is, plumbers, like everybody else, need customers. And if everybody's broke, you're not going to be able to build your business ... It's a simple principle that we've lost, which is that when everybody's sharing in our prosperity, everybody wins...
