Obama speaks to middle class

On the second set of questions from Lehrer, McCain, who has been in the Congress since 1983, led off by saying federal spending is out of control. Where has this guy been? 

Obama keeps refering to the middle class; he speaks of the "middle class really struggling right now," and "getting the middle class a fair shake." It sounds like he's been instructed to use the term "middle class" a lot. I'm still waiting for McCain to mention it.
