Creigh Deeds, explaining his position on taxes, says at one point, “I’m not going to raise taxes, but I’m going to sign a transportation plan that raises new revenue.” Then in the post-debate press conference, he says, within milliseconds of each other, “I have no plans to raise taxes” followed by “everything is on the table.”
