I agree that it was a mistake to increase spending while cutting tax however it was done with the aim of pulling the US economy through the tech bust and 9/11 shock. McCain is the only one who has talked about serious budget expenditure reform in the campaign, and is more likely to veto excessive budget bills coming out of a Pelosi/Reid Congress. It's not just the tax, its the spending as well. As for Palin making up for McCain's economic shortfall - her record in AK isn't bad. Besides, who's making up for Obama's lack of knowledge in economics and finance? Aren’t you overlooking the $1 trillion of increased spending that Obama is proposing?
