You may be confusing elite and elitist. Elite is your social standing; elitist is how you carry yourself and interact with others. But charges of elitism against Democrats are nothing newAnd while I personally LIKE the idea of an erudite and brilliant man leading the country, there's this anti-intellectual current that runs through America - people want a Prez they can have a beer with, not someone who's actually smarter than they are and (more importantly to them) comes across that way. And for better (for the country) or worse (for the campaign), I think Obama does come across like that

she was eating from her gold spoon while Mrs Obama was feeding her son with food stamps which of course makes him elitist!
