McCain is not liberal - he supports free markets and believes less government is the best way to prosperity. What makes you think he is liberal, because he works across the aisle to get things done? Obama, on the other hand, supports taking money from the rich and giving it to the poor - continuing an entitlement mentality that is poisoning the Country. When does the "windfall profits" tax stop? Oil has among the lowest profit margins - Why not Apple - that ******** are gouging us with high priced computers and making boatloads of money. What sense of hope does taxing "excessive profits" foster? I don't think it will create a mentality of working hard to achieve success.
