Hillary and the gas tax - First Read - msnbc.com
lol i had never seen this before, and of course the broadcast media never picked up on it so its not been mentioned at all over the last week. Hmm I wonder why, maybe its because they want to keep this thing between Clinton and Obama going a bit longer so they can keep their ratings up? This is really a bombshell tho. In my opinion, Clinton going from saying that repealing the gas tax is stupid to suddenly saying its the greatest idea ever is much worse than obama's change. With Obama's change, at least he can say "I tried it before, it didn't work out too well, we learned from the mistake and that's why I oppose it now." With Clinton's change its more like "What? Gas tax repeal a bad idea? I never said that, i've always wanted to repeal the gas tax. Hmm you don't believe me? Will Mr. Benjamin Franklin help concince you?"
