Well, as for me, Sen. McCain's plan sounds pretty much the same as the usual Republican line of 'buy it now, pay for it later...or better yet, have the grandkids pay for it." Sen. Clinton sounds as if she's echoing McCain but, in her usual wonky fashion, adding a ton of baroque embellishments to obscure the fact that she is echoing the Republican talking-points yet again. Sen. Obama is saying 'no, that's not what the country needs right now.' Gosh, nice to see somebody who doesn't pander or jump on bandwagons but who takes a thoughtful, long-term view.
A $30 dollar a person gas-tax break isn't going to buy my vote any more than the $300 tax rebate did. Besides, I've got a Prius which is getting between 45 and 50 mpg when I drive it, which isn't often. |
