As for the elitists, it's sort of hard to relate with working class people when you have 109 million bucks. Obama's net worth is nothing in comparison.

Obama is much younger, and just hitting his ceiling in stature.
what money he doesn't have as President will swamp the Clinton's 100 million by the time Obama is in his early 60's.
Relating to working class folks has little to do with net worth.
It's about how hard you go to bat for them in conflicts, and fight for the average guy's interests.
Speeches and ideas are not as important as practicle political skills.
If Obama wins the nomination he will have Clinton to thank for getting him battle tested for the General.
