See Jim DeMint's campaign in SC. He first ran on the idea of a 23% flat sales tax and 'getting rid of the IRS'. Tennenbaum called him on it, showing plain and simple in her commercials how regressive that would be. He changed his commercials to say Tennenbaum was lying; said it wouldn't hurt poor people because 'everybody' would get a check back from the federal government for $400 to offset the sales taxes they would have to pay on food, medicine, cars, homes. (Very specific on the amount everyone would get back). She kept hammering him on it. Then when they were on MTP and Russert was taking DeMint apart, the weasel denied having ever said he was for it at all. He squirmed and hemmed and hawed and would not repeat it on national tv. But then he came back and in the final days he was running ads again about getting rid of the IRS. 'Wouldn't we all like to get rid of the IRS?'

Well, wouldn't you?

So now he's one of *'s little soldiers - um - Senators in the war on the poor.
