If neither changes spending, McCain's tax plan is way worse. If McCain cuts as spending as much as he claims, and if Obama raises spending as much as McCain claims, then they get closer together and Obama's could definitely be way worse, but yeah, we won't have definite numbers for any of those comparisons until it's too late.

I just don't believe anybody who says they're gonna cut spending. It doesn't seem possible to just hop into the White house and say "Okay, we're done, everybody go home." So the way I see it, my choice is between tax and spend or cut and spend.

This is what NEEDS to happen. Taxes need to be hiked across the board, we need to start lower our presence in Iraq, we need to kill the pork barrel spending, and cut down on the budget across the board. The National Debt is KILLING us, and we need to get a surplus, and get one now. American's are going to have to pay for Washington's indesgression... Get reid of the Debt asap or the economy will never recover.

I agree with that.  But the problem is that I dont think McCain, Obama, or anybody for that will do a good job of debt control.  They get in there for 4 to 8 years and would rather look good by spending and putting their name on programs than being responsible but having less photo oppourtunities.

 

 The thing is, I do not see McCain running in 2012 even if he wins. He would be 76, and that would put him at 80 when he finally finishes.

So I think McCain will be one and done, and he will know it. I think he is going to not really give a crap about re-election in 2012. Obama on the other hand is a sure bet to run in 2012 if he wins, things will remain very political. He will not do something like I suggested because it would be political suicide.

I think McCain should come out and say, look people. I am not going to run in 2012. Just give me 4 years to shake up f'en washinton and I will die knowing I served my country best. He says that... wow... That is what we need. Someone who is not going to give a fack about Winning elections or keeping the party happy( and we know McCain has not cared too much about the latter in the past).

just my ranting : ).
