“A bold president would raise the gas tax, not abolish it.”
John McCain will not be elected president if he advocates paying higher prices at the gas pump. He would instantly destroy his campaign. Voters, rightfully or wrongly, reject higher taxes that directly impact on their own pocketbook. Politicians long ago learned to be subtle and discrete. “Barry” Obama would be thrilled if McCain did something so dumb. He would then claim that he is protecting the common citizen. McCain might even lose by a landslide.
