McCain's unusual definition of "middle class"

McCain claims that that eliminating the Alternative Minimum Tax would save “more than 25 million middle-class families more than $2,000 every year.” “But McCain’s ‘middle class’ includes families making up to $200,000 per year,” according to Factcheck.org. “Those earning more money will see the lion’s share of the savings. McCain also leaves out the fact that the proposal could cost as much as $1.6 trillion over 10 years.”
