Think Clinton's plan to suspend the gas tax temporarily is a bad idea? A similar measure in Illinois -- which Obama backed -- seems to have helped consumers.
  • Gas tax holliday: Stupid, stupid, stupid.

    Rescinding the federal gas tax during the 3-month summer holidays is a stupid idea that requires no further discussion on its merits. If Clinton is seriously proposing this scheme she is simply stupid. If she is proposing it to attract stupid voters she is cynical. Take your pick. Given Clinton’s history, my vote goes for cynical. I used to defend Clinton during political discussions. This is no longer possible for me. What a disappointment she has become.
