Yglesias has a nice sum-up of McCain's not-so blue collar lifestlye. I think the elitism thing is a worthless label ... I'd kind of like to have an elite president. But if you're going to levy the "slander" I think what's good for the goose is good for the gander.
Now, I do think "out of touch" is a problem for a candidate, and that's usually what the elitism attacks are referring to. Along those lines - McCain admits to not knowing the price of gas (or remembering the last time he filled up) and also doesn't know how to use a computer (Mom's got a one-up on him!)
