McCain economic advisors are NOT keynesians! Read the list here:

McCain has zero understanding of supply-side economics, so when he gets an economic question his response is a list of people he talks to. Looks like you're following the playbook.

Answer this: if McCain's such a supply-sider, why does he talk about needing to "pay" for the Bush tax cuts with spending cuts? He's still - even now - basing his reasoning for voting against those tax cuts on non-supply-side theory, failing to acknowledge that the tax cuts were responsible for an *increase* in revenues.

He may pay lip service to supply side economics, and he may be able to name a lot of supply side economists, but he's no supply-sider.

I hold a Ph.D. degree in Economics, my friend. So, you have nothing to teach me about s-s economics. Btw, GWB is not an economist but during his service he has shown to be a valuable “administrator”, thanks to good advisers. I believe in value added organization.
