Just to be clear I am voting for Obama as well, still I believe that you need to look at both sides of every coin.
Mitt's policies would have a lot of effect on the middle class, hopefully bring about the growth. But then again so does Obama's. The President inherited a country in less than the perfect state of unity to say the least. The previous administration, all but distorted the middle class and small business owner who employ the most Americans, in addition to completely turning civil liberties on it's head.
President Obama's camp however has really done a terrible job of controlling the news cycle, and have not really gotten the message out to the general population as to the effects of their policies on the country's economy, which is the strongest it's been in 10 years.
Mitt's plan most likely is the fast track to recovery, however it's only building on the foundation that President Obama has spent so much time on. And at what cost, the regression of the liberal ideals to which this country was founded on? I just do think it's worth cheaper gas prices, and 99 cent beer. (Despite the fact that I LOVE both.)
A lot of the lower middle class is really willing to take a blow to their freedom, if it means they can keep a few more pennies in their wallets. It is the constitutional responsibility of the educated to watch and protect those that don't really know what is being taken from them. And at the end of the day, everyone has to know that freedom is not free. And that having freedom has a value, and it's worth more than a tax cost I'm not going to see for 10 years.
