"John Kerry is tied to COMMUNISM!"
Wouldnt the ideologies of Communism and Marxism regarding equality and redistribution of wealth take away his money? hmmm.... one must be a lie. And the other? A hypocratic comment.
Side note: Nixon used whisper campaigns in his Congressional races... ("psst...did you know that Jerry Voorhis is a Communist?" "psst...did you know that Helen Douglas is Jewish?")

The nice thing about being incredibly wealthy in America is that you CAN have it both ways. These folks pay very little income tax if any (receive and store their funds off-shore). The folks that are really hurt by our current redistribution of the wealth are the upper middle class.
I'll bet my parents paid more in income tax than Bill Gates did last year.
