More On Tax Cut Sunsets
Dick Morris makes the same points in his NY Post column today that he made on Hannity and Colmes last night.
I do have a word of caution, though. The only Democrat who will really count in 2004 is John Kerry, who, as I’ve been saying for several months, will likely be the Democratic presidential nominee. In his typical, mealy-mouthed, cowardly fashion, Kerry has criticized the tax cuts, but not said what he’d do instead. I suspect that, when pressed, he’ll duck the issue and say something vague along the lines of “We need to ‘invest’ in education and homeland security.”
Will such a tangibly cynical strategy work? Hey, Kerry’s been getting away with it all his life, starting with the Vietnam War, which he fought in and then protested. And never forget that Bill Clinton, that ultimate, cynical, mealy-mouthed, coward, won two terms as president.
