1. well, edwards is against raising middle class taxes also

on gephardt and dean he is right. being the only candidate to be opposed is somewhat misleading though.

3. isn't Clark a major candidate?

I mean..he's 2nd in most national polls...maybe this is only for Iowa

[JI7]

4. yeah, clark and lieberman

and this is for iowa that's why i only mentioned edwards. since lieberman and clark are not competing in iowa. i would include them though if the same went out in other places they were competing.

7. This was only for Iowa .

I don't think they'd use it in NH. They seem very careful about not stepping over that line where they would lie.

[blm]

2. It is true from what I heard. Distributed in Iowa.

That was before Edwards moved up in the polls. Now, Kerry would have to say that he's one of the two leading candidates who will fight against tax increases.

5. It was true

Since Edwards moved up, not anymore. Because this is an Iowa flyer, not New Hampshire.

6. ok then

guess I will forgive you and JK :)

8. This is helping Kerry so much in Iowa

that Dean will have to drastically alter his position in the Bush tax cuts after NH. He's already promised to change it but that's standard MO for poll powered Howard.

9. I have no idea what Dean's tax plans are n/t

10. This handy booklet should help

Chapter 1 - If it's Monday - My plan is #4
Chapter 2 - If it's Tuesday - My plan is #6
Chapter 3 - If it's Wednesday - Disavow #4 and substitute plan #51
Chapter 4 - If it's Thursday - I'll have a new plan out Friday
Chapter 5 - If it's Friday - I'm the only candidate with a real tax plan
Chapter 6 - If it's Saturday - You've got the power to develop a tax plan
Chapter 7 - If it's Sunday - I never once said I had a tax plan

11. Then you haven't been paying attention

But since Dean is not your candidate, I wouldn't expect you to.

Dean's plan on taxes has been well enough understood to garner frequent criticism here for quite some time now.
