Just more "toying" with the "rough edges", even worse, Repackaged (R) ideas?

NO!

I can't believe some of the things he placed at the center. This was a move to the RIGHT. All I am hearing is the ideologies of the last 30 years are ok, we just need to tweak them. Damn, we are going to run and try and make conservative ideology work.

Sorry, I really started excited.

What a letdown.

1. Yep, I heard him call for an investment tax credit
The last president I heard call for that was Reagan. It became part of abusive tax shelters that really blew up on people during the reign of Bush I.

3. He is talking stronger and going more on the offensive, but otherwise this is meant to appeal to
Republicans. Filled with Right wing talking points and attempting to reposition them to be owned by our party. It's disgusting. Sorry but it is

He gave in to the idea that the existing tax policies are ok, he almost said "read my lips". He elevated Nuclear and coal. Freezing government spending with no cuts in the military?

All this has been tried before and failed.

Those who disagree with this post, how can you defend those things and how can you call this an opposition viewpoint (to conservative idealogy)?
