74. Then why is everyone getting wrapped around an axle about it?

If y'all are elitists, then why such impotent frustration that working class folks would see you in that way?

Or is it just a matter of they're not supposed to be calling me names?

Smug condescension only seems cool. By the time of your first HS reunion, normal people realize that it wasn't cool, it was only an affectation intended to mask one's insecurities.

One of the big pluses that Obama is perceived to have is his success at bringing more people into the political process. If those he brings in are openly contemptuous of the people already there, it's no virtue.
