Read His Lips?

John McCain seems to be backtracking on his pledge of no new taxes. George H.W. Bush found out the hard way what happens when you do that.

One of the few issues that makes McCain slightly more palatable than Obama, when it comes to being president, is his previous stand on taxation. Now, with candidates from both of the major political parties appearing to be dyed-in-the-wool liberals who never met a tax they didn't like, it's starting to look better for a third party candidate to move in and fill the conservative void in the November election.

I know, the Libertarian party is full of nut cases, but what choice do conservatives have at this point? At least their presidential candidate, Bob Barr, seems to have his head on straight.
