Election 2008: Taxes

Report: McCain a ‘Hero’ to Taxpayers - America’s Election HQ:

"In its new report, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste gave [McCain] a 100 percent rating for his votes in the Senate last year, and a lifetime score of 88 percent.
By comparison, the nonpartisan, nonprofit group, which is the lobbying arm of Citizens Against Government Waste, assigned Obama, the Democratic presidential nominee, 10 percent last year and a lifetime score of 18 percent. Biden, Obama’s running
mate, scored 0 percent last year and an overall score of 22 percent.
Higher scores mean stronger resistance to federal earmarks. Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the Republican vice presidential candidate, was not included because the ratings evaluate only members of Congress."

Just for FYI ... but I think there could be a way for them to come up with some sort of rating for Palin too based on her work in Alaska.
