We have the Dem Votes to offset Snowe, and Voinovich.

What the article doesn't tell you is that McCain and Chafee have taken a position that there should be no tax cuts in time of war and that Collins said on Wednesday that a tax cut decision should be deferred until after we know what the war will cost.

You should also know that the GOP budget that the Senate will consider next week does not include all of Bush proposed tax cuts. For example, it does not include any of the Bush savings incentives (lifetime savings accounts, retirement savings accounts, and employer retirement savings accounts). It doesn't include expanding medical savings accounts and making them permanent. And it doesn't protect individuals from the alternative minimum tax after 2005.

As far as I can tell, Miller is the only Dem who will vote for big tax cuts.
