first of all, they'd "have to"
Is Senator McCain delusional or just willfully blind. He says he wants to give Americans a gas-tax-holiday and then responds to a question from John Roberts about whether the oil companies would even pass along the savings to consumers with they'd "have to."
And what, dear John, is that based on? When you pass the gas tax holiday are you also going to cap the price at the pump for the entire summer? Because if you *just* did that, Americans wouldn't need the gas-tax-holiday you propose. Otherwise, I'm thinking the laws of supply and demand will still cause the price of gas to go up during the holiday. Your marketing gimmick should be exposed as just that...and there's no straight talk in this gimmick, Senator McCain.
