Taxes: D's Bad, R's Good. Or Maybe Not

Obama is meeting with a lot of heavy economic hitters today in preparation for turning the campaign towards domestic issues, the last thing McCain wants.

"I used to say that Barack Obama raises taxes and John McCain cuts them, and I was convinced... I stand corrected [about Obama's plans]." Douglas Holtz-Eakin, McCain's chief economic policy adviser.

But nobody corrects McSame. Or is it McBush.

Time took a closer look and, while admitting it's hard to pin the campaigns down on a lot of specifics at this juncture — 100 days to the election — Obama seems to be closer to what we all want than McCain.
