McCain Adviser Flips on Bush Tax Cuts

By GottaLaff

Any chance of any McCainians flipping on the Iraq occupation? Never mind. That's asking too much:

Heard in the CQ newsroom:

Though economist Douglas Holtz-Eakin spent the 2008 presidential campaign advising Sen. John McCain to defend the Bush-era tax cuts, he now thinks they should be allowed to expire on Dec. 31, 2010 due to "the prospect of an Argentina-style fiscal meltdown."
Said Holtz-Eakin: "If you ask: 'Who pays the taxes?', it's the first step toward not having the answer be: 'Our kids.'"

Now that's change you can believe in.
