Kaine as Virginia’s tax and spend governor ignites GOP critique
The piece portrays Timothy Kaine as a traditional tax and spend Democrat, slated to deliver the Democratic response to Bush’s State of the Union. It argues his early term tax hike plans and large road and rail expenditures echo past Virginia spending, not reform, citing a $1 billion surplus and a proposed $4 billion tax/fee increase by 2010. It contrasts Kaine with Bill Clinton and Mark Sanford, urging spending cuts over new taxes. Democrats’ faith in Kaine is depicted as misplaced.
