Re: OMG - McCain Is Losing It...If He Ever Had It
We need to bite the bullet and slash spending and raise taxes. Regan needed to do it, and so did Clinton. Neither of them wanted to pee off their constituency. If anyone is willing to do it, I'd say McCain would be. If he wins it won't be hard core conservatives or left wing Democrats who elect him. So he can ask congress to do those two things and ask the American people's support.
The only way to get a hard thing like this done is to present it in an effective way to the people.
No Obama is going to slash social spending and no right winger would have raised taxes. McCain has a chance because he has been in favor of things such as campaign reform and he didn't mind telling us how illegal immigration was not as easy as it looked.
The question is will he step up to the plate if he is elected, and tell the Dems and the GOP how the cow ate the cabbage?
