Dale his message this week over and over in all states is that Obama is going to raise your taxes while in this economy it will be bad.

Is this really true. It also is followed by distribute the wealth in such a way as to indicate he is going to take your money and spread it around.

Is he really giving the TRUTHFUL message here.. Sarah follows up with Socialism issue and this of course is damaging too.

Just have not felt well enough to investigate these charges.

I think her main weakness is that people just don't trust her to run the country.

McCain indeed does not have a track record to compete against Obama on economic issues. Or else how does anyone explain why people prefer Obama's tax plan over that of McCain.
===============================
Voters Said To Prefer Obama On Taxes

The Wall Street Journal reports Republicans are "losing ground in the battle over taxes -- turf they have dominated since the Reagan administration -- even against a Democratic presidential candidate who is promising substantial tax increases." The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll "showed voters preferred Sen. Obama to Sen. McCain on taxes by 14 percentage points."

Meanwhile, McClatchy notes McCain and Obama "each argue that his tax plan is better to help the ever-suffering small businessman. Tax experts, however, suggest that the candidates' blueprints for helping small business are virtually identical for all but 2 percent to 3 percent of the highest-income small businesses. For them, McCain's plan is more generous."

The New York Times says Obama and McCain "outlined tax and spending proposals that would make annual budget deficits worse, analysts say, with Senator John McCain likely to create a deeper hole than Senator Barack Obama would."
