While I agree with you that he is a great speaker the way he plans on paying for his 830 billion 28% increase in goverment is very flawed. He wants to cut current spending most of which is allready tied up in current bills which he will have to change. I'm not sure how he will get that done because you will have some people in congress who likes the bill and other who will have no problem doing away with that spending bill. This will be true rather its the Dems who supported the bill or the rep. who supported the spending. So he will have to pass his new spending hedged on hoping to reduce current spending and that will be very tough. Or, he will just increase the def..

No I did hear that on a McCain comercial but I have read it in other places and at the moment I can only find this article.

Larry Kudlow on Barack Obama's Economic Plan on NRO Financial=

I wanted to fined something where you would not point to the source and say bias which I would understand with this source.

I would agree that the article is written with bias, but I would not say that automatically invalidates it. I think Kudlow made a lot of good points, even if the ultimate point is to convince people to not vote for Obama.
