From last night's "almost a debate, but not really" at Rick Warren's Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California; McCain blows a question very badly, handing ammo to critics (like me) who say he's out of touch and an economic lightweight:
Asked his definition of "rich," McCain tossed off “$5 million,” then seemed to recognize this could join the list of comments he has tossed off in the past that have come back to him in attack ads.
”I'm sure that comment will be distorted," McCain said. "The point is we want to keep people's taxes low. ... I don't want to raise anybody's taxes."
