Commentary: Dilbert guy's economic poll on McCain, Obama

Adams hired a research firm to survey 500 economists on McCain, Obama and had some interesting results.

The Economists listed as their lowest priority the estate tax. I think this is significant. No one really is in to the estate tax as an issue. The Republicans use it to send a message. The message being: "We are crazy and will even fight for something no one cares about if it helps the upper-upper class. We are THAT for the upper-upper class."
