All About McCain

Her line item veto record in Alaska is impressive in terms of eliminating spending.

But Palin won't have that power (unless you are hoping for President McCain's untimely demise). McCain has indicated that he will continue Bush’s fiscal policies. And as you said, the republicans in Congress have made no moves towards fiscal responsibility. So if the Republican Party has demonstrated (for the last eight years) that they give a rat’s patooey about fiscal prudence – indeed, that they represent just the opposite – then why vote for them on that basis? It doesn’t make sense.
