Economy and Fiscal Conservatism McCain
uses a question about the IRS to attack Ron Paul's "isolationism."
McCain draws an extended applause when he claims that Ron Paul's
attitude is what allowed us to let Hitler rise to power. He may win
some popular points for his Wilsonian revisionism, but I'm not
impressed that he totally missed the question. Romney
flatly refuses to abolish farm subsidies and Giuliani quickly agrees.
Then, Rudy is questioned on accounting details and why funds for NY
police officers were diverted to little-known offices. Environment & Consumer Protection This
question about import regulations really sounds like populist
protectionism to me. Tancredo wants to completely re-negotiate trade
with China, and Hunter flatly says China is "cheating at trade" and
invoking the specter of a cold war by referencing China's arms buildup.
