Taxes and the Republican Debate

Posted on 10 January 2008

The interesting thing in tonight’s debate is the mention and well considered responses related to taxes. Whether or not you like a Huckabee (and his “Fair Tax” that doesn’t add up even with new math), Rudy (and his mother of all tax cuts planned) or nuanced responses by McCain or Thompson, or even Ron Paul’s ideas, you have to like the fact that they are discussing taxes and spending at all.

When I watch both sides, I am shocked over the fact that there is never a question in a Democratic primary debate over spending or taxes. Well, that’s not fair. Every question related to how much spending you intend to increase for health care, education, childcare and illegal immigration health and welfare coverage is discussed. In time, these questions will come.

That is why this Presidential process needs to go all the way. My main goal is to see both parties go down to the last primary. I am sick of the conventional media declaring a winner after a few caucuses and small state primaries. Let’s go the distance.
