Because most people that are voting for the O this year don’t even know what a capital gains tax is, much less care if it’s there or not.
I think that is what the worst part of this is. The fact that so many people are so ignorant about every day life and grown up life and have the ability to choose our leader based on level of “coolness”.

Cut the capital gains tax? Why not just switch to FairTax and ditch it completely and for good?

Because Obama will call it a “gift to the rich” and McCain will be too timid to respond.

Because it’s economic COMMON SENSE....so they won’t even consider it.

The republican house bailout plan actually had the capital gains tax at zero percwnt for two years if I recall.

It would be very bad for the markets to have an expectation that the capital gains tax will go up.
