John McCain feels he must promise a temporary repeal of the gas tax in April...then what sort of malign utopian nonsense will he be spouting by October?
Dunno, but The Hero suddenly sounds desperate perhaps maybe even Mitt Romney desperate.
Shutting the gas tax down will cost the treasury ten billion in revenues most of wehich get sent to the states to subsidize public transport, speaking from personal experience the Red Line can ill afford such a sudden cut. Moreover, big oil pays the tax out of the price at the pump, nothing in McCain's current proposal ensures the savings will be passed along to the consumer.
But the big game is afoot, McCain is making promises no man is safe, it will be "Every Man a King" before labor day.
